Abstract
A high-power linearly-polarized all-fiber single-frequency amplifier at 1064 nm based on tandem corepumping is demonstrated by adopting large-mode-area (LMA) fiber with core/cladding diameter of 20/130 μm. The output performance of the amplifier dependence on the input signal power has been investigated, and the results indicate that enhancing the injection signal power is advantageous in mitigating the amplified simultaneous emission (ASE) and increasing slope efficiency. A maximum output power of 252 W with corresponding slope efficiency of 85% is achieved with injection signal power of 7 W. At the highest output power status, a polarization extinction ratio (PER) of 17 dB and a beam quality of 1.15 are obtained respectively. In addition, by virtue of LMA fiber and tandem core-pumping, the amplifier exhibits good performance on thermal load, which in turn facilitate the maintenance of frequency noise and linewidth. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest output power of single-frequency all-fiber amplifier based on core-pumping scheme.
