High-power tunable Raman soliton generation in large core diameter passive fibers via a precise fundamental-mode matching technique
We demonstrate tunable high-power, high-energy Raman solitons with the range of 1.9-2.3 µm in large mode area (LMA) fibers and an optimized fundamental-mode matching technique for coupling LMA silica fibers. Finally, we obtained Raman solitons with a maximum output power of 5.8 W and a maximum pulse...

Zusammenfassung: | We demonstrate tunable high-power, high-energy Raman solitons with the range of 1.9-2.3 µm in large mode area (LMA) fibers and an optimized fundamental-mode matching technique for coupling LMA silica fibers. Finally, we obtained Raman solitons with a maximum output power of 5.8 W and a maximum pulse energy of 105 nJ in a LMA passive fiber with 32 µm core diameter, the tuning range of Raman soliton is 1.96-2.35 µm. In addition, we obtained Raman solitons with a maximum output power of 7.3 W and a maximum pulse energy of 126 nJ in a LMA passive fiber with 48 µm core diameter, the tuning range of Raman soliton is 1.96-2.27 µm. The output power of 7.3 W is the highest Raman soliton power currently available in silica fibers, and the result fills a gap in the generation of both high-power and high-energy Raman solitons in a LMA silica fiber. |
