Compact Er-Doped ZBLAN Green Upconversion Fibre Laser
In this paper, a fibre laser at 546 nm has been studied for a signal power of -30 dB. Er-doped ZBLAN fibre has been used by upconversion pumping of a 980 nm laser diode. Gain saturation effect has been investigated in detail. Laser performance has also been discussed. An efficiency of 35% has been calculated with a length of 5 mm fibre laser. Results show that Er-doped ZBLAN is a promising cand...
متن کاملAmplification of nanosecond pulses to megawatt peak power levels in Tm3+-doped photonic crystal fiber rod.
We report amplification of sub-10-100 ns pulses with repetition rates from 1 to 20 kHz in a rod-type thulium-doped photonic crystal fiber with 80 μm core diameter. The rod is pumped with a 793 nm laser diode and produces the highest peak power at 1 kHz repetition rate with 6.5 ns pulse duration and more than 7 W average output power. This result exemplifies the potential of this fiber design to...
متن کاملKilowatt Class High-Power CW Yb:YAG Cryogenic Laser
We discuss progress towards a kilowatt class CW Yb:YAG cryogenic laser. Cryogenically-cooled crystalline solid-state lasers, and Yb:YAG lasers in particular, are attractive sources of scalable CW output power with very high wallplug efficiency and excellent beam-quality that is independent of the output power. Results are presented for a high power Yb:YAG oscillator that has produced over 550 W...
متن کاملGain-switched holmium-doped fibre laser.
We demonstrate the first gain-switched, singly doped, single-mode holmium-doped silicate glass fibre laser that operates at 2.106 microm. Using a gain-switched 1.909-microm thulium-doped fibre laser as the pump source, output pulses of energy 3.2 microJ and pulse duration of 150 ns were generated at 80 kHz and slope efficiency of 44%. Pulse stacking within the holmium-doped fibre laser resulted...
متن کاملHigh 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...
