Abstract:Theoretical modelling of high-power thulium-sensitised holmium fluorozirconate glass (Tm:Ho:ZBLAN) fibre lasers operating on the 2 tm transition in holmium is presented. High output power in single-mode is achieved by pumping the inner cladding of double clad fibre with single-mode core with high-power multimode cw diode lasers. The higher output powers possible with the doublecladded fibre laser (or DCFL) over the core-pumped fibre laser means that these particular lasers are suited to a number of medical app… Show more
