Abstract
A family of high-power Yb-doped fiber lasers operated in the range of 1150-1180 nm with output powers of up to 35 W and optical efficiencies up to 60% is realized. Operation at 1200 nm is also demonstrated. Amplified spontaneous emission increase with output power increase is analyzed in frames of the inhomogeneous broadening concept.
