The advances in performance of fiber lasers have been dramatic in the last 10 years, making fiber lasers a commercial business worth over $500M/year. All of this is made possible by the unique performance attributes of rare earth doped silica fibers which is at the heart of each of these laser systems. In this webinar we will describe the key parameters of these fibers, including the use of large mode area (LMA) fibers for high power CW lasers as well as pulsed fiber lasers, along with the key other fiber-based components needed to make a fiber laser. The common rare earth dopants for silica fibers, namely Ytterbium, Erbium, Thulium and Holmium will also be described, along with some of the commercially relevant devices that are enabled by these fibers.
