Abstract
We suggest a configuration for Brillouin fibre laser using Bragg gratings t hat allow very high conversion efficiency and suppression of high order Sto kes and anti-Stokes components. A theoretical study is presented and the ex perimental feasibility is demonstrated. We point out that this system shoul d be an interesting solution to reduce laser linewidth and technical noise.
