Abstract We have proposed and constructed a few-mode fiber (FMF)-based comb filter realized by dislocation splicing a few-mode long-period fiber grating (FM-LPFG) with a single-mode fiber (SMF). From an all-fiber laser with a FMF-based comb filter, the generation of switchable single-, dual-, triple-, and quadruple-wavelength continuous light has been achieved. Moreover, wavelength switchable mode-locked pulses have been obtained with the increased pump power. In the experiment, the output wavelength of the mode-locked fiber laser was changed from 1567.72 nm to 1571.04 nm, while the signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio was maintained above 61 dB. The switchable multiwavelength continuous wave (CW) and mode-locked all-fiber lasers have potentially important applications for fiber sensing, wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) and signal processing.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
