摘要：
We improve the output of a MOPA system that emits single-frequency high-energy optical pulses using a large mode area Er-doped fiber amplifier pumped by a cascaded Raman fiber laser with a low 150 Hz repetition frequency. It is found that the unwanted light generated in the cascaded Raman fiber laser at the same time as the pump light saps the gain of the amplifier and degrades its output characteristics. By combining the removal of unwanted light with a pulse pump technique, the pulse energy is improved from less than 1.0 mJ to 1.2 mJ with at the same time a SNR of 30 dB compared to 19 dB before the improvement. The percentage of power in the signal also improves from 61.0% to over 90.7%. © 2009-2012 IEEE.
