Abstract

A large-range switchable RF signal generator is demonstrated using a triple-wavelength fiber laser with uneven-frequency-spacing. Due to the birefringence characteristics of the triple-wavelength fiber laser, switchable dual-wavelength operation can be obtained by adjusting a polarization controller. Therefore, we can achieve a stable RF signals at microwave or millimeter-wave band.
