In this paper the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) effect in high-power fiber amplifiers seeded by the narrow-band filtered superfluorescent source (SFS) is firstly analyzed both theoretically and experimentally. Spectral models for the formation of the SFS and the spectral evolution in high-power fiber amplifiers seeded by filtered SFS are proposed. It is found that the SRS effect in high-power fiber amplifiers depends on the spectral width of the filtered SFS seed. The theoretical predictions are in qualitative agreements with the experimental results.

In this Letter, we report an ultraflat high-power supercontinuum (SC) based on a low-loss short-length fluorotellurite fiber. A novel high-peak power dual-Raman soliton femtosecond laser is used as a pump source, which effectively extends the mid-infrared SC spectral range and enhances the flatness of the SC. Finally, we obtained a 10.

Dynamic transverse mode instability (TMI) has become one of the primary limitations for power scaling of high-power fiber lasers. Experimental evidence has shown that static mode degradation can suppress the dynamic TMI effect. This study reveals the physical mechanisms behind the mitigation of dynamic TMI in two-mode fiber lasers through static mode degradation.

The control of temporal noise of the pump could add an additional degree of freedom to manipulate the spectrum of continuous-wave (CW) pumped SC generation. In this paper, we experimentally tailor the CW-pumped supercontinuum (SC) generation in a cascaded Raman random fiber laser (CRRFL) based on a 1 µm pump with tunable temporal dynamics. The pump is based on a spectrally filtered ytterbium-doped random fiber laser (YRFL) seed laser, which can be amplified to a 10 W level with the tunable temporal noise.

Femtosecond lasers represent a novel tool for tattoo removal as sources that can be operated at high power, potentially leading to different removal pathways and products. Consequently, the potential toxicity of its application also needs to be evaluated. In this framework, we present a comparative study of Ti:Sapphire femtosecond laser irradiation, as a function of laser power and exposure time, on water dispersions of Pigment Green 7 (PG7) and the green tattoo ink Green Concentrate (GC), which contains PG7 as its coloring agent.

Study of Thermal Effects in Fused-Tapered Pure Passive Fibers and Signal Combiners.

Nanomaterials (Basel)

January 2025

School of Physics and Optoelectronic Engineering, Beijing University of Technology, Beijing 100124, China.

This paper investigates the thermal effects in fused-tapered passive optical fibers under near-infrared absorption. The thermal effect is primarily caused by impurities, such as OH-, which absorb incident light and generate heat. Using the finite element method, the volume changes during fiber tapering were simulated, influencing power density and thermal distribution.
