title: Single-frequency distributed Bragg reflector Nd doped silica fiber laser at 930 nm.
abstract: We report a single-frequency distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) fiber laser at 930 nm for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. A ∼2.5 cm long commercial highly neodymium-doped silica fiber was utilized as the gain medium to achieve ∼1.9 mW laser output. The single longitudinal mode operation of this laser was verified by a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer. This fiber laser is suited for seeding high-power 930 nm narrow-linewidth laser amplifiers, which can be used to generate coherent single-frequency pure blue light through frequency doubling.
