Abstract: A micro Erbium-doped fiber super fluorescent light source is proposed and optimized to meet the requirements of FOG. The size is Ф 50 mm × 15 mm. By using of optimized optical design, gain flat filter and some control methods for laser pump and Erbium fiber, high performance and stable super fluorescent light source is achieved. The output power is more than 13 dBm. Spectral bandwidth is widen than 35nm. The power stability is less than 1% and the Mean wavelength stability is less than 5×10-6. The power and temperature stability of the super fluorescence light source were measured. Both the spectrum and output power of micro super fluorescent light source can withstand severe temperature impact and meet FOG requirements.
