โฆ Synopsis
An one-end-pumped Nd:YVO~4~ laser with fiber- coupled diode is designed. The mode matching between pump mode and laser mode is analyzed, and the optimum mode matching coefficient is obtained by optimizing the pump mode. Based on the optimal pump mode, a 14.2W TEM~00~ mode CW laser is obtained with a optical-optical efficiency of 55.7% at 1064 nm, with M

In this paper, we demonstrate a high-power erbiumdoped fiber amplifier pumped by single-mode titanium sapphire (Ti:S) laser at 980 nm. The highest output power of 22.6 dBm is measured at 1549 nm with an input signal power of 4 dBm and a pump power of 300 mW. This corresponds to power-conversion effi
