Gain modulation in erbium doped optical fibre by pulse pumping

Gain modulation in erbium doped optical fibre by pulse pumping
Gain modulation in erbium doped optical fibre by pulse pumping
An erbium doped fibre laser, which is optically pumped at a wavelength of 532nm from a frequency doubled Q-switched Nd-YAG laser, is described. Gain modulation due to the short (100ns) high rep rate (2kHz) pump pulses produces intense, short laser pulses at 1.538µm. The properties of this laser are examined theoretically and experimentally.

Abstract

An erbium doped fibre laser, which is optically pumped at a wavelength of 532nm from a frequency doubled Q-switched Nd-YAG laser, is described. Gain modulation due to the short (100ns) high rep rate (2kHz) pump pulses produces intense, short laser pulses at 1.538µm. The properties of this laser are examined theoretically and experimentally.
