Polarization-stable operation along the major axis of the diamond-shaped oxide aperture with 11 dB orthogonal polarization suppression ratio is achieved in a temperature range of 15-55℃ from the threshold to 4 mA.展开更多

The gain relationship between quasi-three-level system and four-level system is also given, which provides a theoretical basis for suppressing the four-level transmissions. In the experiment, we adopt the backward pumping configuration and use a linear cavity. The Yb-doped fibre laser has an output power of 372 mW of single-mode laser emission at 980 nm with a slope efficiency of 21.2% when the fibre length is 29.5 cm close to an optimal fibre length in theory. The experimental results accord well with the theoretical analyses.展开更多
