  • Title: Fiber lasers and their applications [Invited].
    Author: Shi W, Fang Q, Zhu X, Norwood RA, Peyghambarian N.
    Journal: Appl Opt; 2014 Oct 01; 53(28):6554-68. PubMed ID: 25322245.
    Abstract:
    Fiber lasers have seen progressive developments in terms of spectral coverage and linewidth, output power, pulse energy, and ultrashort pulse width since the first demonstration of a glass fiber laser in 1964. Their applications have extended into a variety of fields accordingly. In this paper, the milestones of glass fiber laser development are briefly reviewed and recent advances of high-power continuous wave, Q-switched, mode-locked, and single-frequency fiber lasers in the 1, 1.5, 2, and 3 μm regions and their applications in such areas as industry, medicine, research, defense, and security are addressed in detail.
