Abstract

Advancements in high-power delivery of narrow linewidth single mode fiber lasers have garnered significant amount of recent interest with the advancement of hollow-core fibers. It has been shown that by propagating high intensity light through an air core as opposed to a solid glass core one can significantly delay the onset of nonlinear effects deleterious to laser performance. Precisely designed anti-resonant hollow-core fibers have been shown to handle both 100s of watts of average power and low-loss propagation while simultaneously resisting bending losses and discouraging the propagation of any higher order modes. This paper presents the recent progress in surpassing more the 1 kW of single mode 1070nm optical power through one such fiber at a length of more than 10m coiled on a 30cm mandrel.
