摘要
We demonstrate a monolithic continuous wave (CW) fiber laser source at 1080 nm, producing 2.5 kW average laser power with near diffraction-limited beam quality (M-2 < 1.3). The laser consists of a CW fiber laser oscillator and one double cladding (DC) fiber amplifier in the master oscillator-power amplifier (MOPA) configuration. The optical-to-optical conversion efficiency of the entire laser system with respect to the launched pump power is similar to 77.9%.
