Optimization of cavity configuration of a Q-switched fibre laser
2010
We report the results of a study aimed at optimizing the cavity configuration of an actively Q-switched Erbium-doped
fibre laser. We study the importance of extinction ratio of Acousto-Optic Modulator (AOM) on the cavity lasing
performance and in turn the Q-switching efficiency. Two different configurations were studied with the aim of extracting
the highest possible pulse energy without much pulse width variation. Finally, we report the use of our Q-switched laser
to study non-linear interactions in a highly non-linear fibre (HNLF).
