Abstract

A high power double-clad ytterbium-doped large-mode-area photonic crystal fibre (LMA PCF) laser was demonstrated using a unique Fabry-Perot (F-P) configuration. A Continuous-wave output power of 50 W at ~1.04 μm with a slope efficiency of 76.3% was obtained. Single transverse mode operation is achieved without any thermal-optical problems. This laser has the potential for scaling to much higher output power.
