Abstract

By using Yb³⁺-doped double-clad fiber with rectangular inner-cladding, and a set of back-cavity mirrors with different transmission ratio, the double-clad fiber lasers are constructed. It is found that the back-cavity mirror with a higher transmission ratio is better; a back-cavity mirror can control laser wavelength; the relationship between slope efficiency and transmission ratio is in accordance with exponential function, the maximum slope efficiency is about 60%.
