摘要
An ytterbium-doped double-clad fiber laser with one-end pumped by four 915 nm laser diodes (LDs) combined by a homemade multimode fused fiber bundle combiner is proposed. The combiner, fused by splicing four fiber pigtails from diodes, exhibits a good capability of low-loss and a high efficiency of 92. 7%. The fiber laser, which can generate a continuous-wave (CW) up to 10. 3 W output power at 1104 nm with a homemade D-shape inner cladding ytterbium-doped fiber, is demonstrated. The slope efficiency is about 65% and the optical-to-optical conversion efficiency with respect to the pump power is 46% at its maximum output laser power. © 2008 Higher Education Press and Springer-Verlag GmbH.
