High-power chirped-pulse all-fiber amplification system based on large-mode-area fiber gratings

The fabrication of large mode-area single mode fibres are crucial to developing high power all-fibre lasers and amplifiers. We report the amplification of picosecond pulses to microjoule energy levels and pulse peak powers in excess of 500kW in an all fiber Chirped Pulse Amplification (CPA) system b...
