Abstract
The comprehensive suppression of the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) and transverse mode instability (TMI) is a critical issue for the power scaling of fiber laser with sub-GHz spectral linewidth. In this manuscript, a narrow linewidth and polarization-maintained (PM) fiber amplifier based on tapered Yb-doped fiber (T-YDF) is established, and the effects of spectral linewidth, spectral shape and pump wavelength on the SBS and/or TMI thresholds are investigated. Up to 694 W polarization-maintained fiber laser with just ∼790 MHz linewidth is obtained by combining the advantages of tapered Yb-doped fiber, near-rectangular spectral injection and 915 nm pump manner. This work could provide a well reference solution for the realization of high-power ultra-narrow linewidth fiber lasers.
