Book excerpt: The fiber laser, with its humble beginning in the late 1980s, has undergone tremendous development in the past decade or so, transforming itself from a research curiosity to a major force in modern manufacturing. Today, it is revolutionizing our economy by fundamentally changing the way we mark, machine, and process materials on an industrial scale. The recent development of high-power fiber lasers is also fundamentally shaping a wide range of other areas from physical sciences and medicine to geology and space exploration. In the past few years, the tactical deployment of direct energy weapons based on fiber lasers has become a reality. The development of fiber lasers is rooted in a number of technical areas including optical materials, optical waveguide design, nonlinear optics, optical fiber fabrication, and optical characterization, in addition to optical fiber components, and fiber laser design and architecture. No comprehensive in-depth coverage of such diverse topical areas has appeared in a single book. Many important developments have taken place in the past decade in both academia and industry. This book comprehensively covers the basics, technology and applications of fiber lasers including up-to-date developments in both academia and industry and is aimed to serve as both an introduction and research aid for graduate students, engineers, and scientists who are new to this field and also for veterans in the field

Download or read book Power Scaling of Ultrashort Pulse Fiber Laser Systems written by Fabian Röser and published by . This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultrashort pulse sources have become a versatile tool for a wide range of applications ranging from fundamental science to industrial usage. Commonly used pulse sources as the Titanium doped sapphire laser are limited in average output power due to their susceptibility to thermo-optical effects. Clearly, many applications would greatly benefit from an increase in average power in terms of a lower processing time. The use of optical fibers as gain medium overcomes such thermo-optical limitations, but ultrashort pulse amplification is restricted due to the onset of nonlinear effects. Therefore major efforts have been made to develop fibers exhibiting low nonlinearity. One of the most successful types is the so called photonic crystal fiber featuring microstructured waveguides. This work is focused on the investigation of the viability of such fibers for the scaling of average power and pulse peak power in fiber based ultrashort pulse systems. Emphasis is placed on the development of an appropriate model of the pulse amplification process that enables to formulate design guidelines for fiber based ultrashort pulse amplification. These design guidelines and the implementation of microstructured fibers of extreme dimensions led to the experimental realization of fiber laser systems pushing the limits of both average power and pulse peak power. These experiments are described and discussed in this book.

Book excerpt: This handbook provides a comprehensive review of the entire field of laser micro and nano processing, including not only a detailed introduction to individual laser processing techniques but also the fundamentals of laser-matter interaction and lasers, optics, equipment, diagnostics, as well as monitoring and measurement techniques for laser processing. Consisting of 11 sections, each composed of 4 to 6 chapters written by leading experts in the relevant field. Each main part of the handbook is supervised by its own part editor(s) so that high-quality content as well as completeness are assured. The book provides essential scientific and technical information to researchers and engineers already working in the field as well as students and young scientists planning to work in the area in the future. Lasers found application in materials processing practically since their invention in 1960, and are currently used widely in manufacturing. The main driving force behind this fact is that the lasers can provide unique solutions in material processing with high quality, high efficiency, high flexibility, high resolution, versatility and low environmental load. Macro-processing based on thermal process using infrared lasers such as CO2 lasers has been the mainstream in the early stages, while research and development of micro- and nano-processing are becoming increasingly more active as short wavelength and/or short pulse width lasers have been developed. In particular, recent advances in ultrafast lasers have opened up a new avenue to laser material processing due to the capabilities of ultrahigh precision micro- and nanofabrication of diverse materials. This handbook is the first book covering the basics, the state-of-the-art and important applications of the dynamic and rapidly expanding discipline of laser micro- and nanoengineering. This comprehensive source makes readers familiar with a broad spectrum of approaches to solve all relevant problems in science and technology. This handbook is the ultimate desk reference for all people working in the field.
