Description
Recent developments in two-micron thulium and thulium-holmium doped solid-state and fiber lasers allow for significant average-power and pulse-energy scaling, important for mid-IR OPO pumping, materials processing and communication. A focus is put on all-fiber designs and robust, if possible self-aligning, laser resonators, which allow for stable and ruggedized designs.
