Chip-scale, high power microstructure fiber laser

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

Compact, robust, high power fiber lasers have been demonstrated. In fiber lasers of only a few cm length we obtained up to 10 W of cw output power, diffraction limited beam profiles at 4 W cw operation, 1.6 W output with single frequency operation, and more than 150 mW output with a spectral linewidth of a few kHz. The potential of active microstructured fibers for further improvements in fiber laser performance has been shown. We also demonstrated Q-switching and mode-locking of these compact fiber lasers.
