摘要: We report lasing and amplification in a rod type thulium-doped photonic crystal fiber with 80 μm core diameter. The is pumped 793 nm laser diode produces more than 20 W output power at beam quality M(2)<1.3. laser/amplifier has slope efficiency of 27.8%/20.1% relative to absorbed pump threshold 28.6 W. wavelength the configuration can be tuned over 180 from 1810-1990 nm.
