HIGH POWER, TUNABLE, SIDE-PUMPED YB~(3+)-DOPED DOUBLE CLAD FIBER LASER

摘要

We present an experimental study of a high power Yb~(3+)-doped double clad fiber laser in various optical configurations operating in the 1.08 μm wavelength. The fiber is side-pumped with a high power laser diode. For the tuning cavity, the laser exhibits a constant output power of about 1.7 W over 50 nm spectral range.
