The output performances of four basic structures of EYD-SFS have been expressed, and it indicated that the DPF structure is a preferable structure. The dependence of output power, mean wavelength and bandwidth stability on the pump fiber length and the concentration of Er3+ and Yb3+ have also been studied. The results indicated with a proper doping concentration of Er3+ and Yb3+ of 6.0 × 10^26 ions/m3 and 1.0 × 10^27 ions/m3, the optimal gain fiber length is 3.6 cm. In this condition, good performances of DPF structure of EYD-SFS have been achieved.展开更多
