Abstract

We report a MOPA (master oscillator - power amplifier) pulsed optical fiber source emitting high-brightness radiation (M² = 1.65) in the “eye-safe” 1.55 μm region. A high pulse energy of 1.15 mJ was reached at low repetition rates while the maximum average output power was 2.2 W at a wavelength of 1562 nm.
