Abstract

We demonstrate high-power operation from a singly Ho₃₊-doped silica fiber laser that is cladding pumped directly with diode lasers operating at 1150 nm. Internal slope efficiencies approaching the Stokes limit were produced, and the maximum output power was 2.2 W. This result was achieved using a low Ho₃₊-ion concentration and La₃₊-ion codoping, which together limit the transfer of energy between excited Ho₃₊ ions.
