摘要
Based on heavily Tm-doped germanate glass fibers (TGFs), a short all-TGF MOPA laser system with uniform core parameters in each stage was demonstrated. An 11.7 W stable single-frequency laser at 1.95 mu m with an optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of 20.4% is obtained from a homemade 31-cm-long double-cladding single-mode TGF. The estimated stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) threshold of 980 W and the measured relative intensity noise of < -130 dB/Hz for frequencies above 2 MHz are achieved in this MOPA system. Furthermore, the prospect for further power-scaling of such short MOPA laser is considered. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America
