High‐power laser sources are widely used in industrial precision processing and act as a
new platform for strong‐field physics research using peak power over petawatt. This review …

Ultrafast lasers are becoming increasingly widespread in science and industry alike. Fiber-
based ultrafast laser sources are especially attractive because of their compactness …

Ultrafast lasers operating at high repetition rates, in particular the GHz range, enable new
possibilities in laser-material processing, particularly accessing the recently demonstrated …

We demonstrate a high-power, picosecond, thulium-doped, all-fiber master oscillator power
amplifier with average power of 120.4 W. The compact fiber oscillator is carefully designed …

The availability of commercial ultrafast lasers reaching into the kW power level offers
promising potential for high-volume manufacturing applications. Exploiting the available …

In this Letter, we demonstrate an ultrabroadband (1700–1900 nm) tunable Tm-doped fiber
laser (TDFL) generating dissipative solitons in the net-normal dispersion regime. The laser …

We report on a nonlinear preshaper that optimizes initial pulses for self-similar evolution in a
next fiber amplifier. It consists of a pair of gratings and a segment of single-mode fiber (SMF) …

We report on the generation of 180 W average green power from a frequency-doubled
picosecond rod fiber amplifier. In an Yb-doped fiber master-oscillator-power-amplifier …

A low-power source, such as a gain-switched laser diode, usually requires several
amplification stages to reach sufficient power levels. When operating in burst mode, a …

We report on the direct amplification of picosecond pulses to megawatt peak power and 150
W average power using a Yb-doped rod-type fiber master oscillator power amplifier. 3 ps …
