We succeed ill the last switching of an excited laser mode by modulating an acousto-optic modulator loss in a dual-cavity master oscillator, thereby achieving temporal modulation of the output beam profile. The outputs from the master oscillator are amplified via a three-stage power amplifier yielding 36.6, 40.5, and 45.4 W of the maximum output at 116.8 W of incident pump power for the transverse electromagnetic, Laguerre-Gaussian, and quasi-top-hat beam, respectively. The prospects for further power scaling and applications via the dual-cavity master-oscillator power-amplifier (MOPA) system are considered.展开更多

Stable mode-locked rectangular pulses are obtained by using the nonlinear amplifying loop mirror(NALM) technique. A long spool of high-nonlinearity fiber(HNLF) and a segment of SMF-28 fiber are used to enhance the nonlinearity of the NALM loop and to obtain a large all-anomalous regime. Output power and pulse energy are further boosted by using a three-stage master oscillator power amplifier(MOPA) system. At the maximum pump power, average output power of up to 104.3 W with record pulse energy of 0.33 mJ is achieved with a 2 μm DSR-based MOPA system.展开更多
