KVO530: High-Power Mode-Locked Yb-Fiber Laser

MOHAMAD AKMAL MOHAMAD LUTFI University Of Malaya

This project demonstrates powerful, short pulses in fiber laser, which have many important applications. We used a special type of fiber called double-clad ytterbium-doped fiber and achieved pulses with a super short duration of 108 fs at a wavelength of 1 µm. These pulses had an impressive peak power of 540.7 kW. The laser operates smoothly, producing stable pulses, making it suitable for various real-world uses. The success of this demonstration showcases the potential of fiber lasers with unique materials.
