Enhancing the Efficacy of Noise Modulation for SBS Suppression in High Power, Narrow Linewidth Fiber Lasers by the Incorporation of Sinusoidal Modulation

Power scaling of continuous-wave, narrow-linewidth fiber lasers are limited by the onset of stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) which manifests at threshold as potentially damaging, peak power, backward propagating pulses. While several SBS mitigation techniques exist, optical linewidth broadening...
