Journal ArticleDOI
High-power widely tunable thulium fiber lasers
Timothy S. McComb,R. Andrew Sims,Christina C. C. Willis,Pankaj Kadwani,Vikas Sudesh,Lawrence Shah,Martin Richardson +6 more
TL;DR: Two different laser configurations for high-power tunable thulium fiber lasers are reported on: one is a single oscillator utilizing a volume Bragg grating for wavelength stabilization; the other is a master oscillator power amplifier system with the oscillator stabilized and made tunable by a diffraction grating.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diode-pumped 200 μm diameter core, gain-guided, index-antiguided single mode fiber laser
Vikas Sudesh,Timothy S. McComb,Ying Chen,Michael Bass,Martin Richardson,John Ballato,Anthony E. Siegman +6 more
TL;DR: Single mode laser action in a diode-pumped gain-guided, index- antiguided Nd3+-doped phosphate glass fiber having a 200-μm-diameter core is demonstrated, indicating robust lowest order mode oscillation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spectroscopic and diode-pumped-laser properties of TM,Ho:YLF; Tm, Ho:LuLF; and Tm,Ho:LuAG crystals: a comparative study
Vikas Sudesh,Kazuhiro Asai +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison of Tm,Ho:YLF, Tm Ho:LuLF, and TmHo:LuAG was performed under identical experimental conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Confined propagation and near single-mode laser oscillation in a gain-guided, index antiguided optical fiber
Anthony E. Siegman,Ying Chen,Vikas Sudesh,Martin Richardson,Michael Bass,Paul Foy,Wade Hawkins,John Ballato +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported laser oscillation in what appears to be a single transverse mode with very large mode area in optical fibers having heavily Nd-doped 100μm diameter cores with refractive index significantly lower in the core than in the surrounding cladding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Very large-core, single-mode, gain-guided, index-antiguided fiber lasers.
TL;DR: Lowest-order, single-mode laser oscillation is reported in gain-guided index-antiguided fiber lasers having core diameters from 100 to 400 microm.
