摘要
In this paper, we report a 3.7 kW all fiber narrow linewidth single mode fiber laser. The full width at half-maximum is about 0.30 nm, and the beam quality is M-x(2)=1.358, M-y(2)=1.202 at maximum output power. The laser is achieved by simultaneously suppressing nonlinear effects and mode instability (MI). Different seeds are injected into the main amplifier to study stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) effect. The results show that the phase modulated single frequency seed is benefit to suppress the SRS effect. For the phase modulated single frequency seed, inserting a filter in preamplifier will suppress amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and decrease the backward power. By optimizing the coiling of active fiber, the MI effect is suppressed. (C) 2019 Optical Society of America under the terms of the OSA Open Access Publishing Agreement
