Abstract
The authors report a Fabry-Perot erbium fibre laser which displays a s ingle-longitudinal mode and tuning capability over 21 nm with a freque ncy resolution of approximately 20MHz. The laser can also be piezoelec trically frequency-modulated with a frequency deviation up to 25GHz. A small frequency modulation is applied to lock the laser to the centre of the R(10) line of acetylene at 1527.862(4)nm.
