This paper demonstrates multiwavelength fiber laser employing semiconductor optical amplifier in nonlinear optical loop mirror with polarization controller and polarization maintaining fiber. The configuration consists of a 3-dB coupler, polarization controller and several lengths of polarization maintaining fiber. The results showed a single polarization controller with 5 meters of polarization maintaining fiber length generated 36 of lasing lines at 160mA of semiconductor optical amplifier current. In addition, for the average peak power and average optical signal to noise ratio, the 2 meters of polarization maintaining fiber length with single polarization controller in the nonlinear optical loop mirror shows higher values, 0.55mW at 210mA and 31.98dB at 210mA, respectively. Both gain media have a wider bandwidth operating in the C-band and L-band at room temperature.
