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 کاملLaser-induced damage to large core optical fiber by high peak power laser
In this paper we present a study of laser damage to large core multimode glass optical fibers by high peak laser power of up to 175 kW. Fibers samples prepared with polymer coatings having different refractive indices were tested in a twopoint bend tester while transmitting laser light. The peak power used in the experiment clearly differentiated the performance among the samples. A polymer coa...
متن کاملGenerating photoacoustic signals using high-peak power pulsed laser diodes
Photoacoustic signals are usually generated using bulky and expensive Q-switched Nd:YAG lasers, with limited scope for varying the pulse repetition frequency, wavelength and pulse width. An alternative would be to use laser diodes as excitation sources; these devices are compact, relatively inexpensive, and available in a wide variety of NIR wavelengths. Their pulse duration and repetition rate...
متن کاملAutomated Winter Road Maintenance Using Road Surface Condition Measurements
Real-time measurement of tire-road friction coefficient is extremely valuable for winter road maintenance operations and can be used to optimize the kind and quantity of the deicing and anti-icing chemicals applied to the roadway. In this project, a wheel based tire-road friction coefficient measurement system is first developed for snowplows. Unlike a traditional Norse meter, this system is ba...
متن کاملHigh peak power pulsed single-mode linearly polarized LMA fiber amplifier and Q-switch laser
We report on the recent progress in the design and development of completely monolithic linearly-polarized pulsed fiber amplifiers seeded by Q-switched fiber laser oscillators. We demonstrate near diffraction limited beam quality with ~20kW peak power (1mJ pulse energy, ~45nsec) pulses and an average power ~20W at 20kHz repetition rate with linearly polarized (>17dB PER) output from a simple MO...
