Abstrakt: In this paper, we demonstrate a multi-wavelength Brillouin-erbium fiber laser (BEFL) with ~33 GHz frequency spacing using cascaded stimulated Brillouin scattering effects in optical fiber. The proposed laser structure exhibits a stable output channel with a tuning range of 19 nm, from 1549 nm to 1568 nm. The number of stable output channels produced is six channels with a triple-Brillouin frequency spacing. The output channels exhibit high output power and high optical signal-to-noise ratios (OSNRs). The laser structure has the potential to be used as a multi-wavelength source for optical communication systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
