Abstract

Fibre lasers present numerous advantages over other lasers not only in terms of low threshold, efficiency and low operating power but also with respect to their compatibility with standard single-mode fibres. Lasing action has been demonstrated in rare-earth doped silica single-mode fibres with both semiconductor laser and argon ion/dye laser pump sources. Semiconductor laser-diode pumping is highly convenient both in terms of cost and operational requirements. We describe here the characteristics of a single-mode Nd3+-doped fibre laser operating at 1.088µm. In particular results are presented for CW, Q-switched and mode-locked operation.
