For applications like atomic trapping or interferometry where a linear polarization is needed then the cyfl kilo polarization is highly stable.
Ytterbium fiber laser.
Reliability and maintenance free are defining this single laser.
In this paper we summarize the fundamental properties and review the latest developments in high power ytterbium doped fiber ydf lasers.
The yb 3 ion is used as a doping material in active laser media specifically in solid state lasers and double clad fiber lasers.
Ytterbium doped laser crystals and glasses have a number of interesting properties which differ from those of e g neodymium doped gain media.
Ytterbium can also easily be incorporated into the material used to make the laser.
Ytterbium lasers are highly efficient have long lifetimes and can generate short pulses.
The review is focused primarily on the main fiber laser.
