Abstract
Efficient glass-clad crystal fiber (CF) lasers were demonstrated using a Ti:sapphire crystalline core as the gain medium. With a core diameter of 18 μm, the laser diode (LD) pump source can be effectively coupled and guided throughout the crystal fiber for a low threshold and high slope efficiency laser operation. The advantage of high heat dissipation efficiency of the fiber structure can be derived from the low core temperature rising measurement (i.e., 17 K/W) with passive cooling. At an output transmittance of 23%, the lowest absorbed threshold of 118.2 mW and highest slope efficiency of 29.6% were achieved, with linear laser polarization.
