Linewidth-narrowing and frequency noise reduction of Brillouin fiber laser cavity operating at 1-µm.

We report on a stabilized single-frequency Brillouin fiber laser operating at 1.06 µm by means of a passive highly nonlinear fiber ring cavity combined with a phase-locking loop scheme. We show significant linewidth narrowing (below 1-kHz) as well as frequency noise reduction compared to that of the initial pump in our mode-hop free Brillouin fiber laser. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
