SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 3 -- Cladding pumped-fiber lasers are producing the high powers required to replace traditional lasers in important application areas, said Johan Nilsson of Southampton Photonics, Inc.(SPI) and the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC), University of Southampton, at a presentation last week at Photonics West 2003 in San Jose. Nilsson said his findings enhance the rapid advances being made in optical fiber and pump technology. In published experiments, Nilsson said, over 270 W of single-mode output power at 1080 nm from an ytterbium-doped fiber laser (YDFL), and over 100...Read full article
