All-fiber all-normal dispersion laser with an in-fiber Lyot filter

We propose use of a short PM-fiber section as birefringent medium to construct an all-fiber Lyot filter, with bandwidth adjustable through the PM-fiber length. An all-fiber all-normal-dispersion laser is demonstrated using standard components only.
