摘要：

Characteristics of a single-frequency erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) controlled by an external light source is investigated. The frequency control is achieved by cooperatively induced spatial hole-burning (SHR) formed by the interference between the lasing light and the external light. We evaluate the frequency stability of several cavity designs of the fiber laser and the frequency control characteristics in detail, Tunable operation as wide as 30-nm wavelength range with a good frequency stability is also demonstrated.
