A small core Yb3+-doped holey fibre laser and amplifier
A small core Yb3+-doped holey fibre laser and amplifier
We have fabricated an ytterbium doped holey fibre with an effective area of just 2.5µm2 at the laser wavelength (1.03µm). Using this fibre, we have demonstrated a low threshold mode-locked laser using frequency feedback technique. Furthermore, by seeding with pico-joule femtosecond pulses, we obtain Raman solitons tunable from 1.06 to 1.58µm.

Abstract
We have fabricated an ytterbium doped holey fibre with an effective area of just 2.5µm2 at the laser wavelength (1.03µm). Using this fibre, we have demonstrated a low threshold mode-locked laser using frequency feedback technique. Furthermore, by seeding with pico-joule femtosecond pulses, we obtain Raman solitons tunable from 1.06 to 1.58µm.
