Narrow linewidth CW and Q-switched erbium-doped fibre loop laser

Narrow linewidth CW and Q-switched erbium-doped fibre loop laser
Narrow linewidth CW and Q-switched erbium-doped fibre loop laser
The authors report the operation of a single-frequency, diode-pumped laser in CW operation with a linewidth of 10kHz, which provides a prelase for a narrow linewidth Q-switched laser. This was achieved by incorporating an unpumped low Er3+-doped fibre. In Q-switched operation, a linewidth of less than 60MHz is reported for pulses of 1µs at a repetition rate of 960 Hz.

Abstract

The authors report the operation of a single-frequency, diode-pumped laser in CW operation with a linewidth of 10kHz, which provides a prelase for a narrow linewidth Q-switched laser. This was achieved by incorporating an unpumped low Er3+-doped fibre. In Q-switched operation, a linewidth of less than 60MHz is reported for pulses of 1µs at a repetition rate of 960 Hz.
