Abstract
We propose a new concept to produce switchable multiwavelength oscillations with a cascaded fiber Bragg grating overlapping cavity erbium-doped fiber laser. The laser can be designed to operate in multiwavelength or in wavelength switching modes. The different lines have different thresholds. For three-wavelength oscillation, the output powers are linear or piecewise linear functions of the input pump power. An output with a variation of only 1.5 dB has been achieved with an input pump power of 100 mW. For wavelength switching, three single-wavelength and two dual-wavelength operation regions have been obtained toy adjusting the input pump levels.
