Paper Abstract
We developed a core pumped, 3-color pulsed fiber laser with 40W average output at 1550 nm with a pulse duration of 5 ns at pulse-repetition frequency (PRF) of 1 MHz corresponding to 8kW peak power. The enabling technology for this high power laser was 1480 nm core pumping of a polarization maintaining, very large mode area (PM-VLMA) Er-doped fiber amplifier with ~37 μm mode field diameter. Optical pulses from modulated seed sources were pre-amplified to 1W average power and injected into the PM-VLMA core pumped with a 100W, 1480 nm Raman fiber laser. The VLMA amplifier showed no sign of non-linearity due to Stimulated Brillion Scattering or Four-wave mixing.
