High-power femtosecond all-fiber laser system at 1.5 µm with a fundamental repetition rate of 4.9 GHz

2021 
In this Letter, we demonstrate a high-power femtosecond all-fiber laser system at 1.5 µm that operates at a fundamental repetition rate of up to 4.9 GHz. This high repetition rate laser system delivers an average power of 10 W and a pulsewidth of 63 fs in an all-fiber configuration—the best overall performance at 1.5 µm, so far, in terms of the all-fiber design, high average power, short pulsewidth, and high fundamental repetition rate. Integrated from 10 Hz to 10 MHz, this high-power femtosecond all-fiber laser system exhibits a relative intensity noise of only 0.4%. It is anticipated that this femtosecond laser system is promising for various applications, such as high-speed micromachining, wide-field multiphoton bioimaging, and nonlinear optics.
