    Here we report the demonstration of a spectral peaking phenomenon in a fiber laser oscillator. An HCN gas cell was inserted in an ultrashort-pulse Er-doped fiber laser with single-wall carbon nanotubes. Sech(2)-shaped ultrashort pulses with intense multiple sharp spectral peaks were stably generated. When the generated pulses were coupled into highly nonlinear fiber, enhanced multiple spectral peaks were generated by periodical spectral peaking in the optical fiber. The characteristics and physical mechanism of spectral peaking in the fiber laser were investigated via numerical simulations. As the magnitude of absorption was increased, the magnitude of the generated spectral peaks increased almost exponentially. It was clarified that the spectral peaks were generated through the accumulation of filtering components generated in each round trip.

    High average power lasers with a high pulse energy are of considerable interest in various fields such as high-energy-density physics. Light-absorbing edge cladding is effective in suppressing parasitic oscillations in high-pulse-energy disk lasers; however, the large amount of heat generated from the cladding can affect the laser medium. We develop an improved conduction-cooled active-mirror laser with a double-sided cooled-edge cladding. A stable laser output with a pulse energy of 10 J at a repetition rate of 100 Hz was achieved using six liquid-nitrogen-cooled active-mirrors in the main amplifier. This study shows that aggressive cooling of the edge cladding is highly effective in decreasing the temperature rise and controlling the temperature distribution in the laser medium.

    Featured Application: Biomedical imaging, Environmental spectroscopy, LIDAR, Medicine, and Laser processing. In this paper, we have demonstrated a dispersion-managed, high-power, Tm-Ho co-doped ultrashort pulse fiber laser using a single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) dispersed in polyimide film. An in-line type spectral filter was developed to control the output pulse spectra. Two SWNT films with different modulation depths were examined as a mode-locker. Normal dispersion fiber was used in the fiber laser oscillator, and dependence on net cavity dispersion was investigated. Passive mode-locking was achieved in a wide dispersion range, from −0.319 to +0.101 ps2. Stable soliton mode-locking operation and dissipative soliton mode-locking operations were observed. The pumping efficiency was ~3 times higher than that in a Tm-doped fiber laser with a similar configuration. The developed fiber laser showed self-start and stable operations, and this laser is useful for practical applications.

    We report, to the best of our knowledge, the highest power conductive-cooled active-mirror amplifier (CcAMA) using Yb:YAG with a pulse energy of 10 J. By using four liquid-nitrogen circulating cooled laser heads, we achieved a repetition rate, pulse energy, and average power of 33.3 Hz, 9.3 J, and 310 W, respectively. The problem of wavefront distortion, which is difficult to solve with a large-aperture active-mirror laser, is suppressed by using reinforcing materials with the same thermal expansion coefficient. We have confirmed that the wavefront distortion is small (0.15 lambda P-V per head) at 100 Hz operation, which paves the way for 100 Hz operation with the CcAMA concept.

    Highly transparent ceramic is an attractive gain medium for high-power lasers due to its high fracture toughness, homogeneity, and size scalability. Here we report the first Yb3+-doped CaF2-LaF3 ceramics laser. Codoping of La3+ ion can reduce the formation of Yb2+ ions and enhance the laser efficiency. In the laser experiment, the maximum output power of 4.36 W and the maximum slope efficiency of 69.5% were obtained with a 3% La, 2% Yb sample and a 2% La, 1% Yb sample, respectively. Due to the combined properties of Yb: CaF2 and a ceramic laser gain medium, Yb: CaF2-LaF3 ceramic is a promising gain medium for a high-power ultrashort pulse laser and amplifier.

    Yb:LuAG is a promising gain medium for high-power lasers due to its high thermal conductivity and large emission cross section. Although narrowband gain media such as Yb: LuAG are not considered to be suitable for the generation of sub-100 fs pulses, we have achieved generation of 91 fs pulses with Yb: LuAG ceramic by the Kerr-lens mode-locking (KLM) technique. The obtained average power, pulse energy, and peak power were 1.64 W, 20.0 nJ, and 220 kW, respectively. These are, to the best of our knowledge, the first demonstration of KLM and the new records based on both Yb: LuAG ceramic and single crystal. (C) 2016 Optical Society of America

    1.SWNTを用いた高出力超短パルスファイバレーザーの開発
    Tm-Ho共添加ファイバを利得媒質に用い,1.8-2.0um帯に可飽和吸収を示す直径1.6nmのSWNTを可飽和吸収体に用いて,全ファイバ型の高出力な超短パルスファイバレーザーを開発した.Tm-Ho共添加ファイバの採用によって,励起効率を大幅に向上することができた.
    2.SWNTを用いた全偏波保持デュアルコムファイバレーザーの開発と広帯域デュアルコム分光への応用
    1.55um帯で可飽和吸収特性を示す直径1.25nmのSWNTを用いて,全偏波保持型のEr添加デュアルコムファイバレーザーを開発した.更にその出力を増幅し,スペクトルを拡げて波長1.5um帯に吸収を持つHCNの指紋スペクトルのデュアルコム分光を実現した.システムは長期安定性に優れ,平均化によって信号対雑音比を大きく向上することができた.次に,デュアルコムファイバレーザーの出力を増幅後,波長シフトとスペクトル圧縮を行い,波長1.6~1.7umの広い帯域に渡ってCH4の指紋スペクトルのデュアルコム分光測定を実現した.また,光学系の温度制御と外乱の除去によって,測定系の安定化を図れることを示した.
    3.スペクトルピーキング現象の発現
    上記の実験の中で,ガスの細い吸収を受けた超短パルスを光ファイバに導波させることで,吸収がピークに周期的に変換される新しい現象を見いだした.更に,数値解析と実験による解析によって諸特性とその原理を明らかにした.この技術は,数百GHzの広い周波数間隔の光周波数コムの生成や特定のコムモードの抽出,光スペクトル標準として有用である.

    This study proposes a novel method to suppress gain narrowing and enable an industrially useful high-power ultrashort pulse laser source. The design had to be changed according to the results of numerical analysis, and actual amplification of ultrashort laser pulses could not be achieved during the research period. However, we achieved the highest output power (138 W) for a laser using Yb:KREW crystals in CW oscillation and developed a disk module that is capable of withstanding high pumping intensities of 7 kW/cm2. The disk module is expected to be of great value in the development of high-power ultrashort laser oscillators and amplifiers. We will use the obtained disk module for the amplification of ultrashort pulsed lasers, which is the original purpose of the project, as well as for proof of concept.
