The influence of intracavity second harmonic generation on the mode competition in a double-mode diode-pumped Nd:YAG laser is studied theoretically and experimentally. Various configurations of the optical cavity with II-type phase-matching frequency-doubling crystals are considered. The conditions

## Abstract Based on the maser oscillator power amplifier configuration including a single mode erbium‐doped fiber laser used as the signal source and a large‐mode‐area Erbium/Ytterbium double‐clad fiber used as the gain medium, the polarization states of the signal light and the amplified signal l
A passively mode-locked ytterbium-doped largemode-area photonic crystal fiber oscillator operating in the vicinity of zero cavity dispersion is demonstrated. The self-starting mode-locking operation is achieved by a high contrast saturable absorber mirror. Two mode-locking regimes with opposite sign
Pre¨ious designs for wa¨eguide mode con¨erters generally assume a pure input mode at the input. Howe¨er, in the actual case, the main input mode is usually accompanied by se¨eral spurious modes with small fractional power le¨els. Based on the coupled-mode theory, this letter presents a study on the
