摘要：

A novel cladding pumped Nd3+ fiber laser operating in an enhanced Q-switched regime with a stable repetition rate is described. By exploiting fiber nonlinearities in the laser cavity, we demonstrated a peak power of 3.7 kW enhanced by an order of magnitude greater than that of conventional Q-switched fiber devices. Pulse durations as short as 2 ns have been achieved. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.
