摘要：

We report a pulsed erbium-doped fiber laser with simultaneous switching of the laser cavity Q-value and generation wavelength. The laser generates a train of short pulses with adjacent pulses alternately being on one of two fixed wavelengths. This regime is realized at periodical modulation of physical length of overwritten fiber Bragg gratings composing the laser cavity.
