Abstract
In this paper, the compact high-power pulsed Raman fiber lasers based on single-pass stimulated Raman scattering have been experimentally presented. Home-built noise-like pulse laser centered at ∼1994.7 nm with an envelope width of ∼20.8 ns was utilized as the pump laser, which can provide a maximal output power of ∼19.1 W without a notable spectral broadening. The 1st-order Raman laser operated at ∼2190.8 nm with a maximal output power of ∼4.11 W and a spectral purity of ∼93 % was achieved. Furthermore, by finely optimizing the length of Raman-gain fiber, the 2nd-order Raman laser centered at ∼2408.5 nm with a maximal power of ∼2.36 W was achieved, which represents the maximal value of Raman laser at 2.4 μm in silica-core fiber, to the best of our knowledge. The high-power pulsed Raman fiber lasers may have the potential applications in polymer material processing and spectroscopy.
