A single-frequency Brillouin fiber ring laser with extremely narrow linewidth comprises a single-frequency narrow-linewidth rapid-tunable pump laser, a temperature-controlled acoustically-damped package for Brillouin fiber ring laser cavity, and an auto-tracking feedback electronic loop with novel configuration for active stabilization. The Pound-Drever-Hall frequency-locking technique is employed to keep pump laser frequency in resonance with one of the Brillouin fiber ring cavity modes. Instead of changing cavity length of Brillouin fiber ring laser, the pump laser frequency is rapidly tuned in the auto-tracking feedback electronic loop. This enables extremely narrow linewidth radiation emitted from a Brillouin fiber ring laser without stretching the fiber ring. Dual-wavelength actively stabilized Brillouin fiber ring laser may be generated from a single ring cavity by polarization-combining or wavelength-combining two pump laser beams and using two independent feedback loops to the two operation wavelengths.
