Ultimate power limits of optical fibers

Ultimate power limits of optical fibers

The fundamental power scaling limits for diffraction limited fiber lasers are reviewed. Relationships between the limits show there is an upper bound for single aperture power of conventional fiber lasers of 10-40 kW.
