Abstract:
In this paper, we demonstrate an all-fiber high-power Yb-doped 1 030 nm fiber laser based on master oscillator power amplifier structure. The record output power at 1 030 nm up to 3 004 W was achieved, along with a slope efficiency of 69.27%, which is the highest output power for 1030 nm near diffraction limited beam quality fiber laser. The beam quality factor is
Mx2=1.169,
My2=1.174, and full width at half maximum is 0.18 nm at maximum power level. The amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) suppression ratio reaches up to 37 dB.
