Yb-Fiber-Amplification of Harmonically Mode-Locked Semiconductor-Laser-Pulses
Abstract
There has been recent interest in the development of Yb-doped fiber master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) systems which utilize a short pulse semiconductor laser as the seed source [1]. Semiconductor lasers that are mode-locked are well suited to seed fiber-MOPAs since they are capable of directly generating short picosecond pulses at up to gigahertz repetition rates with low timing jitter. Additionally, mode-locked diode sources offer good …
