High peak power Ytterbium doped fiber amplifiers
1 Abstract We have tested a series of Ytterbium doped large core fibers operating near 10Kpps and producing pulses of approximately 1ns. We have achieved 850μJ/pulse resulting in peak powers in excess of 2MW with 0.4ns pulses and near diffraction limited beams. In another fiber, we have achieved over 1.5mJ/pulse with pulses of 900ps corresponding to 1.65MW of peak power and M of 2.5. In the lat...
متن کاملNondestructive testing by using long-wave infrared interferometric techniques with CO2 lasers and microbolometer arrays.
We describe three different interferometric techniques (electronic speckle pattern interferometry, digital holographic interferometry, and digital shearography), using a long-wave infrared radiation produced by a CO(2) laser and recorded on a microbolometer array. Experimental results showing how these methods can be used for nondestructive testing are presented. Advantages and disadvantages of...
متن کاملHigh control in high power fiber lasers and amplifiers
We discuss fundamental aspects and future prospects of high power fiber lasers and amplifiers with particular attention to high control of cladding-pumped, rare-earth-doped fiber sources in a multitude of regimes. Summary The past few years have seen dramatic advances in fiber laser and amplifier technologies. Fiber lasers of output powers beyond a kilowatt or multi-kilowatt with high beam qual...
متن کاملSpatial filters for high-peak-power multistage laser amplifiers.
We describe spatial filters used in a Nd:glass laser with an output pulse energy up to 300 J and a pulse duration of 1 ns. This laser is designed for pumping of a chirped-pulse optical parametric amplifier. We present data required to choose the shape and diameter of a spatial filter lens, taking into account aberrations caused by spherical surfaces. Calculation of the optimal pinhole diameter ...
متن کاملHigh-peak-power efficient edge-emitting photonic crystal nanocavity lasers.
Record-high edge-emitted peak power was collected from L3 and finite-waveguide two-dimensional photonic crystal nanocavity quantum well membrane lasers at room temperature under single-mode operations. Peak power levels of 230 microW and 540 microW were collected from L3 and finite-waveguide edge-emitters, and their quantum differential efficiencies are 11% and 27%, respectively, limited by the...
