Spectral Beam Combining of Fiber Lasers by Using Reflecting Volume Bragg Gratings

By employing three reflecting volume Bragg gratings,a near-infrared 4-channel spectral-beam-combining system is demonstrated to present 720 W combined power with a combining efficiency of 94.7%.The combined laser beam is near-diffraction-limited with a beam factor M~2~1.54.During this 4-channel beam-combining process,no special active cooling measures are used to evaluate the volume Bragg gratings as combining elements are under the higher power laser operation.Thermal expansion and period distortion are verified in a 2kW 2-channel beam-combining process,and the heat issue in the transmission case is found to be more remarkable than that in the diffraction case.Transmitted and diffracted beams experience wave-front aberrations with different degrees,thus leading to distinct beam deterioration.

Agreement between Experimental and Theoretical Gain and ASE of an Erbium-Doped Fiber Characterized by Dynamic Techniques

A comparison between theoretical and experimental results of gain and ASE obtained with erbium-doped fibers (EDFs) pumped at 980 nm is presented. Parameters used for the calculations were deduced from a completely different experiment based on the study of fluorescence dynamics. The deduced parameters are not only the emission coefficents (equivalent to the emission cross-sections), but also the erbium concentration and its effective radial distribution. In the subsequent comparison of gain and amplified spontaneous emissions (ASE), a good agreement between theory and experiment is obtained. Therefore, combination of the usual theoretical model of EDFs and the characterization method that is proposed can give correct gain and ASE predictions.
