Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is one of the main limits for fiber lasers further power scaling. We report on the suppression of the stimulated Raman scattering in fiber laser amplifier using chirped and tilted fiber Bragg gratings (CTFBGs) for the first time. In this paper, we design and fabricate a CTFBG used to suppress the SRS in 1090 nm fiber laser output, and establish a system to test the effect of suppression. A maximum suppression ratio nearly 25 dB is achieved. Experimental results demonstrate that CTFBGs can increase the Raman threshold and promote the slope efficiency of the whole system, which is significant for further power scaling in high power oscillators and amplifiers.
We compare both analytically and numerically the distributed side-coupled cladding-pumped (DSCCP) fiber lasers and double cladding fiber (DCF) lasers. We show that, through optimization of the coupling and absorbing coefficients, the optical-to-optical efficiency of DSCCP fiber lasers can be made as high as that of DCF lasers. At the same time, DSCCP fiber lasers are better than the DCF lasers in terms of thermal management.
Pristine LNCM and LNCMA as Li-rich cathode materials for lithium ion batteries were synthesized via a sol–gel route. The Al-substituted LNCM sample exhibits an enhanced high rate performance and superior cyclability.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
