Tapered-EDF-Based Mach–Zehnder Interferometer for Dual-Wavelength Fiber Laser

An all-fiber comb filter using a tapered-erbium-doped fiber in a Mach-Zehnder interferometer structure is presented. The free spectral range, extinction ratio, bandwidth, and interference pattern of the comb filter can be shaped by controlling the taper waist length and the length of up and down tap...
