Low noise and narrow linewidth single frequency fiber lasers have wide applications in the fields of optical communication, microwave photonics, space gravitational wave detection and etc. In order to meet the urgent demand of ultralow noise laser in the application of the next generation long distance coherent detection and solve the key problem of traditional noise reduction technique, including the limited bandwidth of photoelectric feedback technology, design of complex structure of optical filter outside the laser cavity and etc., novel noise reduction technology of single frequency fiber via intracavity all optical negative feedback is researched. The related research contents including: building the theoretical model of fiber laser and the noise transfer-function to improve the performance of the laser; The influence of laser output power, wavelength, noise spectrum on the heat distribution of the grating area is studied experimentally, and the optical negative feedback mechanism is established; The noise level of the laser is greatly suppressed by all optical negative feedback in the cavity and the mechanism simulation and experimental study are carried out. This research will provide a large amount of data and experimental confirmation which will also be useful for the improvement of Low noise and narrow linewidth fiber lasers.
