Abstract
In the present work, a multiwavelength Raman fiber laser based in a Sagnac configuration is presented. The Sagnac configuration is composed of a Hi–Bi photonic crystal fiber in the middle of two dispersion compensation fibers. The pump power induces two random mirrors to work in opposite directions in the Sagnac, leading to the amplified signal and the multiple scattering signals from the random mirror traveling through the Hi–Bi photonic crystal fiber in a counter-propagating way interfering in the output port.
