Single-mode plane-polarized ytterbium-doped large-core fiber laser with 633 W continuous-wave output power

Single-mode plane-polarized ytterbium-doped large-core fiber laser with 633 W continuous-wave output power
Single-mode plane-polarized ytterbium-doped large-core fiber laser with 633 W continuous-wave output power
We demonstrate a cladding-pumped single-mode plane-polarized ytterbium-doped fiber laser generating 633 W of continuous-wave output power at 1.1 µm with 67% slope efficiency and a polarization extinction ratio better than 16 dB. The laser is end-pumped through both fiber ends and shows no evidence of roll-over even at the highest output power, which is limited only by available pump power.

Abstract

We demonstrate a cladding-pumped single-mode plane-polarized ytterbium-doped fiber laser generating 633 W of continuous-wave output power at 1.1 µm with 67% slope efficiency and a polarization extinction ratio better than 16 dB. The laser is end-pumped through both fiber ends and shows no evidence of roll-over even at the highest output power, which is limited only by available pump power.
