  • Abstract
    This paper summarizes our recent progress in 2 micron fiber lasers using Tm and Tm-Ho-co-doped multi-component glass fibers. Single frequency fiber lasers with linewidth less than 3kHz, Q-switched single frequency fiber lasers with kilowatt peak power, and mode-locked fiber lasers near 2 micron wavelength were demonstrated using these newly developed fibers.
