Abstract
A fiber-laser includes a gain-fiber in a laser-resonator. A polarizer is located in the laser-resonator at an end thereof, causing the output of the fiber-laser to be linearly polarized. A wavelength-selective element is also included in the laser-resonator for selecting an output wavelength of the fiber-laser from within a gain-bandwidth of the gain-fiber.
