摘要: High average power fiber lasers and amplifiers have numerous industrial, scientific, and defense applications. Defense applications include laser-based weapons, laser-induced spark, and lidar. The small size and high optical-to-optical efficiency of fiber lasers and amplifiers also makes them promising components for scalable high-power laser systems employing spectral or coherent beam combination, but the output power and energy from individual fiber lasers have yet to reach their full potential. The main limitations for scaling fiber lasers and amplifiers to higher power and higher energy are nonlinear optical effects within the active gain fibers and thermal failure due to extremely high power densities of the pump and laser radiation. In order to overcome the limitations Dr. D. Patel from Oakwood University, the PI, has been conducting research project New nanomaterials for high power fiber lasers sponsored by DoD. The goal of this instrumentation project was to support the research efforts of Dr. Patel with the necessary research instrumentation and improve the capabilities of the Oakwood University in the direction of new laser nanomaterials and nanophotonics related to the DoD needs.
