Impact of modal interference on the output beam properties of large-core cladding-pumped fiber amplifiers

Impact of modal interference on the output beam properties of large-core cladding-pumped fiber amplifiers
Impact of modal interference on the output beam properties of large-core cladding-pumped fiber amplifiers
Modal interference in few-moded large-core fiber amplifiers can yield output beams with good beam quality (M ~ 1.2 - 1.4) giving the impression of single-mode operation despite significant higher-order mode content. The implications for high-power devices are discussed.

Abstract

Modal interference in few-moded large-core fiber amplifiers can yield output beams with good beam quality (M ~ 1.2 - 1.4) giving the impression of single-mode operation despite significant higher-order mode content. The implications for high-power devices are discussed.
