Characterization and Power Scaling of Beam-Combinable Ytterbium-Doped Microstructured Fiber Amplifier

<p> In this dissertation, high-power ytterbium-doped fiber amplifiers designed with advanced waveguide concepts are characterized and power scaled. Fiber waveguides utilizing cladding microstructures to achieve wave guidance via the photonic bandgap (PBG) effect and a combination of PBG and mo...
