Tunable single-longitudinal-mode ErYb:glass laser locked by a bulk glass Bragg grating.
A single-longitudinal-mode ErYb:glass laser with a linewidth of 90 kHz is demonstrated by locking the laser wavelength to 1552.6 nm with a bulk glass Bragg grating. Using a piezoelectric actuator, the wavelength could be tuned over a range of 0.25 nm (31 GHz) in steps of 17 pm (2.1 GHz), with an output power of a few milliwatts.
