raman fiber lasers with mehrwellenlu00e4ngiger, stable, small output power for applications as a seed laser

摘要

Disclosed is a Raman laser device (10) having a first cavity in which lasing occurs at a first frequency, and at least one second cavity in which lasing occurs at a second frequency. Thereby respective first and second waves inside the respective cavities are generated having a first power and a second power, respectively. Further, beams propagating outside the cavities are generated by coupling out a part of the first power and a part of the second power utilizing respective output mirrors. The part of the second power that is coupled out is attenuated without attenuating the complementary part of the second power remaining in the second cavity. The Raman laser device is characterized in that the part of the second power that is coupled out is attenuated utilizing at least one Fiber Bragg Grating (46, 62). IMAGE
