Abstract

The combination of a double-pass superfluorescent fibre source with a wavelength-selective reflector fabricated using the thin film deposition technology enables us to design a broadband light source with fairly good performances (output power < 20 mW, bandwidth of 30 nm, coherence length of 81 μm) and at low cost.
