Filamentation Analysis in Large-Mode-Area Fiber Lasers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We drive an analytic expression for filament gain in fiber lasers due to self focusing. The filamentation process has two thresholds that must be met, with beam-quality degradation occurring for peak powers above a megawatt.
