A multiwavelength laser operating on the basis of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is demonstrated in a single mode fiber (SMF) coupled with a feedback loop and an optical circulator. Ten simultaneous Stokes and anti-Stokes lines are obtained with a line spacing of either 0.08 or 0.16 nm at a Brillouin pump (BP) power of 14 dBm. The use of a 50/50 fused coupler gives the highest number of lines at a Stokes power of approximately 8 dBm. The anti-Stokes lines are generated by four-wave mixing and bidirectional operation of the system. This Brillouin fiber laser (BFL) is capable of operating at any wavelength, depending completely on the BP wavelength. Due to the built-in feedback mechanism, its operation is free from the need for any additional active linear gain medium, such as erbium-doped fibers used in a Brillouin erbium fiber laser. Further, the SMF can in principle be replaced with a highly nonlinear waveguide, such as a photonic crystal waveguide, to make a compact multiwavelength BFL.

In this paper, we report a new type of refractometer based on a D-shaped fiber Bragg grating (FBG) integrated in a loop-mirror optical fiber laser. This proposed sensor is used in wavelength interrogation method, in which the D-shaped FBG is applied as a refractive index (RI) sensing probe and a mirror to select mode of laser. The D-shaped FBG is prepared by the removal of a portion of the fiber cladding covering the FBG by means of side-polishing technique. The D-shaped FBG sensing probe integrated in a loop-mirror optical fiber laser with saturated pump technique, the characteristics of sensing signals have been improved to obtain stable intensity, narrower bandwidth and higher optical signal-to-noise ratio compare to normal reflection configuration. The limit of detection (LOD) of this sensor can be achieved to 2.95 x 10-4 RIU in the refractive index (RI) range of 1.42-1.44. Accordingly, we believe that the proposed refractometer has a huge potential for applications in biochemical-sensing technique.
