Abstract
We investigate the influence of repetition rate on the operation and output of a gain-switched fiber laser. We derive an equation relating pump pulse duration to repetition rate, which provides insight into the parameters of the operating laser such as absorbed pump power and internal losses. The change in laser pulse duration with varying repetition rate is measured and found to be negligible. Finally, the derived theory is compared to experimental results obtained using a ytterbium-doped rod type fiber laser.
