Hybrid Fiber-Bulk Pulsed Erbium Laser

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking University of Southampton as follows: The contractor will investigate the development of a novel eye-safe 1.6 micrometer laser source pumped by a high-power fiber laser co-doped with Erbium and Ytterbium to produce a highly efficient eye-safe source for use in laser radars, and atmospheric and environmental monitoring.
