photonics： "the emerging science and applications of fiber laser technology"开启投稿
special issue information
dear colleagues,
like other varieties of laser, fiber lasers consist of three parts: gain medium, pump source, and resonant cavity. fiber lasers use active fibers doped with rare earth elements in the fiber core as a gain medium. generally, semiconductor lasers are used as pump sources. the resonant cavity is generally composed of devices such as mirrors, fiber end faces, optical filters, or fiber gratings.
fiber lasers possess the advantages of high output power, excellent beam quality, narrow linewidth, good heat dissipation performance, compact structure, etc., and are growing more and more important in scientific research and industrial production.
until now, various kinds of fiber lasers have been proposed for the application of optical imaging, material processing, high-precision sensing, optical fiber communication, spectroscopy, microwave generation, laser-based medical treatments, and a variety of other uses. for example, ultra-narrow linewidth fiber lasers are attractive for usage in high-resolution acoustic sensing and 2 μm fiber lasers are interesting in atmospheric applications. thus, this technology is of vital importance for the investigation of various kinds of fiber lasers and their wide applications.
both original research papers and review papers are welcome. potential technical topics include, but are not limited, to the following areas of study:
fiber lasers operating in various wavebands, including 1.0 μm, 1.5 μm, 2.0 μm and above;
new mechanisms in fiber lasers, including power amplification, linewidth narrowing, wavelength tuning and so on;
various applications of fiber lasers in scientific research, including optical imaging, material processing, high precision sensing, optical fiber communication, spectroscopy, microwave generation, laser medical and so on;
application of fiber lasers in industry, including cutting, welding, marking and so on;
mode-locked fiber laser, wavelength tunable and switchable fiber laser and so on;
design and fabrication of various fibers used for emerging science and applications of fiber laser.
