title: Four-wave mixing assisted stability enhancement: theory, experiment, and application.
abstract: Stability enhancement on the basis of four-wave mixing (FWM) is proposed and proved for the first time to our knowledge. This technique is applied to dual-wavelength erbium-doped fiber lasers. Significant uniformity and stability of the novel fiber lasers are demonstrated experimentally.
