  • Abstract
    Investigation of the correlation between longitudinal photon density distribution and spectral linewidth re-broadening, in conjunction with carefully designed coupling optics, enable laser modules that simultaneously achieve very high fibre-coupled power of 175 mW and very narrow linewidth<1 MHz even at ∼120 mW of output power to be successfully fabricated.
