Near diffraction-limited performance of an OPA pumped acetylene-filled hollow-core fiber laser in the mid-IR

We investigate the mid-IR laser beam characteristics from an acetylene-filled hollow-core optical fiber gas laser (HOFGLAS) system. The laser exhibits near-diffraction limited beam quality in the 3 μm region with M = 1.15 ± 0.02 measured at high pulse energy, and the highest mid-IR pulse energy from...
