Monolithic Side-Pumped Amplifier Based on an Yb-Doped Tapered-Fiber and Yielding 0.53 MW 9.3 ps Pulses

We demonstrated a simple design of a monolithic all-fiber side-coupled combiner for counter-pumped amplifiers that requires no special fiber processing systems for fabrication. The combiner based on a Yb-doped polarization-maintained tapered fiber with an output core diameter of 40 µm and a total le...
