Hi ,, I am pursuing MTech from Laser Science and engineering from India and I want to work in foreign countries ,, friends as you are in laser related field ,,I want your favour ,,

This is much higher quality than I expected

Excellent Presentation. I watched first hand the development of a Fiber Laser used in LIDAR Applications from the perspective of a PCB Layout Engineer dealing with Pump Diodes and Optical Racetracks and the electronics driving them. Made for some interesting challenges. I never expected to have to change a board layout because of the reflectivity of objects such as a Stop Sign at the frequency of our Laser. Now I have a much better appreciation for the issues facing the scientists and the problems we Engineers had to solve to create a low cost mass manufacturable device. Thanks! We succeeded by the way.

A bit to take in there! Thanks for taking the time to present this fantastic introduction to fibre technology.

I thought the fibers optically transmitted the laser light from a laser diode. I had no idea this kind of technology existed til now. Amazing.

Thank you for the explanation of how fiber coupling works I haven't found such useful details elsewhere.

That was intense but also amazing. A lot of those terms were over my head but that was well done even though it is a very complex subject. Would be awesome to see a multi-video series on this subject. Very cool stuff.

I love, love, love this level of explanation. This video is one of the best education photonics videos I have seen ever.

Thank you very much for sharing this knowledge with me. You are truly a gentleman and a scholar.

Thanks for the amazing explanation.

You gave an excellent description.We learned a lot about fiber lasers. 👍💐

Excellent and detailed explanation. The issue that I am involved in is looking for the best temperature for the best wavelength so that the pump diodes bring the least pressure. The challenge is the temperature of the pumps and the temperature of the oxygen and nitrogen during cutting. By bringing the pump temperature to minus 12 degrees, we obtained lower quality and energy

Really excellent introduction. Well done and Thanks!

Nice explanation, thanks.

Nice video, one question, what's the wall to aperture efficiency?

This is the perfect kind of summary that should be done before most of engineering (and other fields) courses, and after this, the detailed explanations would make sense for the first time.

One of the best videos on youtube, period. Keep it up.

yes amazing analysis and description

But if this type of laser needs laser diode to pump it , then why we need fiber after that at all ? I mean in other laser like ruby , hene we pump it with normal diffused light from dis lamp that that active medium makes laser beam from light but in this laser if we use , let's say 1 watt Laser diode of any wavelength so how it would be beneficial to use fiber as amplifier medium because due to the fact that efficiency can't go higher then 100 (according to energy violation law) ?

@jasonkocher3513

I'm going to take a stab at answering this... because I have struggled with the same question. I think the goal is to get the beam quality to single mode and smoothly Gaussian intensity so the energy can be maximized when focused into a tiny dot. So the better the beam quality, the smaller the dot you can focus, the higher the Watt per Square Centimeter. Taken to its logical limit... the single mode with best beam quality has the smallest focal point which yields the highest intensity. Can anyone else validate this answer in case I'm missing something too?

This was very informative, but I want to know if you can collimate a fiber laser into a low divergence beam. As a laserist this was very enjoyable, I work with ILDA show lasers and have wondered about the use of fiber coupled lasers. I know that you can collimate after a resonator but what about raw fiber output?

Good Explanation (y)

Interesting video. I have a few Q's if you don't mind. 1) You keep stating that you (the industry?) is striving for single mode fiber. I thought the communication industry liked multi mode fiber because they can run multiple wavelengths down it at the same time and get more bandwidth out of the same fiber. Perhaps for the purpose of fiber lasers single mode fiber is desired over multimode, 2) I am not sure of the gain of the fiber laser. If I am seeing this correctly, you need to start with a laser to make the fiber laser work. I thought semiconductor lasers were already monochromatic and I can not see getting more power out than you are putting in or you would have perpetual motion. What exactly are you gaining? Is this a way of shifting to a new wavelength? 3) Perhaps more of a statement.. The one big thing I do see is how to parallel multiple lasers together, but that seemed to have little to do with the fiber laser part. Is that a correct assumption? I plan on watching this again. It is definitely interesting. Thank you and your company for presenting it!

@DehimVerveen

5 жыл бұрын

After reading Wikipedia, this is what I think I understood: 1) The communication industry also likes single mode fibers. Multi mode means that light takes multiple different paths through the fiber. One path is longer than the other. This means light will take longer to traverse a longer path than it will take to traverse a shorter path. This is modal dispersion. for example a pulse with a length of 1 ns is fired through a fiber. Lets say the slowest mode takes 100 ns to reach the other end, whereas the fastes mode take 90 ns to reach the end. This means a 1 ns pulse at the input of the fiber has turned into a 10 ns pulse at the output. This decreases the signal bandwidth of the fiber. furthermore single mode fibers are less lossy. 2) The fiber laser allows you to take one or more high numerical aperture lasers and combine them into one high power low numerical aperture single mode laser. The pumping beam travels mostly through the inner cladding, but interacts with the core to pump the lower energy state electrons into a higher energy state. when these electrons fall back to their lower energy state they emit a photon of a different wavelength. This is called spontaneous emission. when these emitted photons interact with other high energy state electrons, they cause them to fall back to their lower energy state and emit a photon with the same direction, wavelength and polarisation. This is called stimulated emission. This way you get a high power beam, with very little modal dispersion.

The utility of a laser in most applications is that you get to focus a lot of energy all in one place, higher intensity the better for most uses. If you think to focus a bunch of different laser diodes all in one spot of some tens of microns in dimeter and totaling a kilowatt or so, you are not really going to succeed at that. But if you use the same diodes to pump a fiber laser, then the output from that fiber laser you can focus all in one spot. Note, that the cladding the pump light travels in is a lot thicker than the core where the laser emission travels at. Don't get confused by the pump diodes being lasers themselves, you could be talking about a ruby laser bumped by a a flash tube, or a gas laser, it's going to be the same situation. The laser emission can be focused down to smaller spot for higher intensity than the pump energy can, that's the point of using lasers to pump a laser.

what language is that ?

Such a gritty level of engineering goes into these things. I really wanna see them produce the fused bionic coupler and what goes into its fabrication but I doubt that information is freely available.

My mind is blown.

When describing the absorption length of a typical fiber laser, "13 db" is shown above the diameter of the loop in the example fiber (around 6:27 into the video). What is this unit of "db"? I cannot seem to figure it out. The unit of dB (decibels) doesn't seem to make sense here, but that's the only unit that I can find is abbreviated by the letters "DB". Is it 13 decibels?

@littlestworkshop

6 жыл бұрын

This is decibel yes. Decibel is not a physical unit but a way of expressing a ratio between two quantities using logarithms. For sound it is used like a unit because the sound is compared to some reference (e.g. dBm means compared to 1mW). In this case it refers to a loss, the ratio of the input power to output power through the fibre. The advantage of using dB is that it allows you to add the losses so a 6dB loss followed by another 6dB loss is a 12dB loss whereas a loss of 0.5 followed by a loss of 0.5 is a loss of 0.25 which is less obvious for non trivial examples.
