Abstract
Eye safe erbium lasers are very important for different applications in optical communication and lidar techniques, e.g. due to their coincidence with the attenuation minimum of glass fibers at 1.55um (Er:Yb:Glass laser) and with the methane absorption line at 1.64μm (Er:YAG laser). For these applications different techniques for obtaining single frequency operation have been investigated.
