Abstract

We review current work on fiber laser systems at Corning. In particular, we describe design and performance of all-glass double-clad laser fibers, broad-area laser pumps, and pump coupling optics. We discuss our approaches using single-polarization fiber and low-nonlinearity photonic band gap fiber as technologies for developing the next generation of high-power fiber lasers.
