Abstract

Fibre lasers are attractive candidates as sources for fibre devices. Certain applications, such as distributed sensing, require short duration pulses of reasonable energy ~1µJ: other applications, for example current monitors, require single polarisation operation. The work reported here demonstrates that both requirements can be met by diode pumped fibre lasers. Results are presented for Nd3+ doped silica fibres, fabricated by the solution doping technique.
