Summary:
A high birefringence fiber ring filter with an inline reflector is newly proposed. Narrowband reflection peaks with large effective free spectral range are achieved by the intrinsic vernier effect between the traveling orthogonally polarized lights along the fast and slow axes in the high birefringence fiber. The special properties facilitate its application in single frequency fiber lasers.
