Q: What is the operating principle of a fiber laser?
A: The working principle of a fiber laser is based on the amplification of the fiber and the excitation process of the laser. The pump source provides energy to excite the dopants in the fiber (e.g., Nd, Yb, etc.) to an excited state, creating an excitation energy level. When excited state particles are stimulated by photons, they make a jump to the ground state, which releases energy. This energy is emitted in the form of photons to form a laser beam. In an optical fiber, the laser beam is confined by the waveguide effect through reflection and refraction and undergoes multiple excited radiation and excited emission processes to form a laser beam with high power, high brightness and high spectral purity.
