Abstract
In this work, a single-frequency fiber amplifier with output power of 703 W was demonstrated at 1064 nm in an all-fiber configuration. Cascaded Yb3+-doped fiber structure with different dopant concentration and hybrid 915/976 nm pump scheme were employed in power scaling stage to improve the gain saturation for higher transverse mode instability threshold. An overall optical efficiency of 67.5% was achieved at the maximum output power and the M2 was measured to be ~1.4. A spectral linewidth of 2 kHz was achieved at the 703-W laser power, which is to the best of our knowledge, the first time that the linewidth of a kHz single-frequency fiber amplifier is characterized at such high laser power.
