Prospects for average power scaling of sub-MW output peak power picosecond fiber lasers
by utilization of a Yb-doped tapered fiber at the final amplification stage were studied. In this …

A gain-managed nonlinear (GMN) tapered fiber amplifier with a monolithic configuration is
experimentally demonstrated. Both the forward and backward pumping scheme were …

High concentration rare earth doped, large mode area (LMA) step-index fibers, which
feature a very high cladding absorption per unit length at the pump wavelength, high …

In this Letter, we demonstrate a monolithic high-power master oscillator power amplifier by
using a home-made double-clad tapered Yb-doped fiber (T-YDF) with an input end of∼ …

In the power scaling of monolithic fiber lasers, the fiber nonlinear effects and transverse
mode instability are main limitations. The tapered gain fiber has a longitudinally varying …
