The ASE spectral power as functions of the fiber length and the pump power is investigated by solving the rate and propagation equations. By calculation, when the concentration of thulium in fiber is 2.25×1025 m-3, the fiber core diameter is 2.6 μm, and the pump power is 200 mW at 808 nm, the optimal fiber length is 8.1 m, and the output power of ASE can reach 60 mW in the range of 1800-1950 nm with this fiber length. The optical-to-optical conversion is 30.3%. The optimal pump power also can be obtained by this model.展开更多
The 885 nm direct pumping directly into the^4F_(3/2)emitting level of Nd^(3+)is applied on an Nd:Lu_(0.15)Y_(0.85)VO_4 crystal.The maximum output power of 2.8 W for continuous wave(CW)operation is obtained.For Q-switc...The 885 nm direct pumping directly into the^4F_(3/2)emitting level of Nd^(3+)is applied on an Nd:Lu_(0.15)Y_(0.85)VO_4 crystal.The maximum output power of 2.8 W for continuous wave(CW)operation is obtained.For Q-switched operation,the maximum average output power is 1.2 W with pulse repetition of 23.69 kHz and pulse width of 35 ns at the pump power of 27.9 W.The high-quality fundamental transverse mode can be observed owing to the reduction of thermal effect for Nd:Lu_(0.15)Y_(0.85)VO_4 crystal by 885 nm direct pumping.展开更多
