Abstract
We demonstrate a 2.8 μm gas Raman laser in a methane-filled hollow-core negative-curvature fiber with average power of 113 mW, pulse energy of 113 μJ and estimated peak power of 9.5 MW. Raman quantum efficiency of 40% has been reached from the pump source at 1.064 μm to the 2nd order vibrational Stokes at 2.812 μm using 1.8 MPa methane gas. To our knowledge, this is the first high peak power fiber-based gas Raman laser in mid-infrared region and a range of applications in supercontinuum generation, laser surgery, molecular tracing and gas detection are in prospect.
