Abstract

An Ytterbium-doped photonic crystal fibre laser is demonstrated with a 100 µm² core area and single transverse mode with an output efficiency of 30%. Double-clad PCF laser structures are demonstrated with pump cladding NA greater than 0.8 and output power up to 3.9 W. Such lasers are potentially scalable to high power.
