This model takes into account the mechanisms of cross relaxation and energy transfer to describe the laser operation. A subroutine program for calculating the absorption rate of cladding pumped scheme is included in the model. The losses of signal and pump light along the fiber have been taken into account. The test of cladding pumped scheme program shows good agreement with the experimental result. The experimental results of core pumping Tm Ho doped fiber laser in fluoride host are compared with the present model, and shows a good agreement with calculations. This model also provides data of the optimum parameters for the configuration of the efficient cladding pumped Tm Ho fluoride laser systems.展开更多

This paper reviews the history and current development of fiber lasers, with topics covering both continuous wave and short pulse fiber lasers. Important issues such as the major rare earth dopants, fiber laser brightness, polarization effects, clad pumping technology, beam combination, mode locking and pulse shaping are discussed in this paper.展开更多
