Efficient 0.9-{mu}m neodymium-doped single-mode fibre laser

An efficient cw single-mode double-clad Nd{sup 3+}-doped fibre laser is developed which operates at room temperature in a quasi-three level scheme on the 925-nm {sup 4}F{sub 3/2} - {sup 4}I{sub 9/2} transition upon diode pump at 805 nm. The gain in the laser resonator at 1.06 {mu}m is strongly suppr...

Zusammenfassung:An efficient cw single-mode double-clad Nd{sup 3+}-doped fibre laser is developed which operates at room temperature in a quasi-three level scheme on the 925-nm {sup 4}F{sub 3/2} - {sup 4}I{sub 9/2} transition upon diode pump at 805 nm. The gain in the laser resonator at 1.06 {mu}m is strongly suppressed due to a proper choice of the refractive index profile in the fibre core. The laser output power above 0.5 W is obtained with the slope efficiency exceeding 35 %. (letters)
