READ ME File For 'Dataset for: Short single-frequency self-pulsing Brillouin-Raman distributed feedback fiber laser' Dataset DOI: ReadMe Author: Rex Bannerman, University of Southampton This dataset supports the publication: 'Short single-frequency self-pulsing Brillouin-Raman distributed feedback fiber laser' Submitted to be published in Optics Express. Contents +++++++++ All data used for plots in the paper as titled above is included here. "ESA-CW" Is the raw data from (electronic) spectrum analyser as produced by the ADVANTEST R3273 for CW lasing "ESA-Pulsed" Is the raw data from (electronic) spectrum analyser as produced by the ADVANTEST R3273 for pulsed lasing "Pump_Depletion_pulsing" Is the raw data from the 3 GHz oscilloscope with 300mW peak pulse power, the first column is time in second, the second is DC sampled data (laser output), the third is AC sampled data (pump) and the forth is redundant. "Typical_low_power_pulsing" Is the raw data from the 3 GHz oscilloscope with 60mW peak pulse power, the first column is time in second, the second is DC sampled data (laser output), the third is AC sampled data (pump) and the forth is redundant. "Tranmission_Spectra_Raw" Is the raw cavity FBG transmission spectra in a standard numpy binary file with wavelength (nm) in the first tuple entry and intensity (dBm) in the second (i.e. wavelength, intensity = np.load(XXXXX)). "Laser_Spectra_vs_Pump_Power" Is the laser output spectra for various pump power (in the filename) in a standard numpy binary file with wavelength (nm) in the first tuple entry and intensity (dBm) in the second (i.e. wavelength, intensity = np.load(XXXXX)).
