    ..3%. We believe this is the first experimental confirmation of the predicted pump energy recycling for this fiber laser. The narrow laser linewidth varied from 0.09 to 0.16 nm from low to maximum output power...

    Center for Optics, Photonics and Lasers, Universite Laval, Quebec G1V 0A6, Canada
    Opt Express 20:22188-94. 2012
    ..We accurately model this phenomenon by combining the diffusion theory with a basic thermal equation. Experimental measurements are in agreement with the model predictions for a good range of operating conditions...

    Opt Lett 34:3313-5. 2009
    ..Our results, including the slope efficiency of 26.6% with respect to launched pump power, suggest that erbium could be a better alternative than holmium in the search for a replacement for the flashlamp-pumped Er:YAG at 2.94 microm...
