Abstract
An output dielectric mirror is deposited on the central part (~15 μm diameter) at the end face of a 1-km graded-index fiber and tested as output mirror of multimode Raman laser with highly-multimode (M2~34) 940-nm LD pumping. In the cavity with highly-reflective input FBG, Raman lasing of Stokes wave at 976 nm starts at the threshold pump power of ~80 W. The output beam quality factor measured near the threshold (~1W at 976 nm) M2~2 confirms mode selective properties of such output mirror. The power scaling capabilities at increased pump power together with a more detailed characterization of the output beam (spatial profile, spectrum and its stability) are performed and the obtained characteristics are compared with those for output coupling based on Fresnel reflection from the mirror-free fiber end face.
