Development of a table-top nanosecond pulsed fibre laser for use in optical resolution photoacoustic microscopy

This thesis covers the construction and development of fibre laser Master Oscillator Power Amplifier (MOPA) systems for photoacoustic imaging applications. An initial system developed for photoacoustic tomography was built, based around the use of an Amplifier Spontaneous Emission (ASE) source, modu...
