摘要：High-power fiber lasers have experienced a dramatic development over the last *** increasing the output power needs an upscaling of the fiber mode area,while maintaining a single-mode ***,we propose an all-solid anti-resonant fiber(ARF)structure,which ensures single-mode operation in broadband by resonantly coupling higherorder modes into the cladding.A series of fibers with core sizes ranging from 40 to 100µm are proposed exhibiting maximum mode area exceeding 5000µ*** simulations show this resonant coupling scheme provides a higher-order mode(mainly TE01,TM01,and HE21)suppression ratio of more than 20 dB,while keeping the fundamental mode loss lower than 1 dB/*** proposed structure also exhibits high tolerance for core index depression.

摘要：In this paper the temperature-related performances of the Yb^3＋：YAG disc laser has been investigated based on quasi-three level rate equation model. A compact diamond window cooling scheme also has been demonstrated. In this cooling scheme, laser disc is placed between two thin discs of single crystal synthetic diamond, the heat transfer from Yb^3＋：YAG to the diamond, in the direction of the optical axis, and then rapidly conducted radically outward through the diamond to the cooling water at the circumference of the diamond/Yb^3＋ ：YAG assembly. Simulation results show that increasing the thickness of the diamond and the overlap-length （between diamond and water） decreases the disc temperature. Therefore a 0.3-0.5 mm thick diamond window with the overlap-length of 1.5 2.0 mm will provide acceptable cost effective cooling, e.g., with a pump intensity of 15 kW/cm^2 and repetitive rate of 10 Hz, to keep the maximum temperature of the lasing disc below a reasonable value （310K）, the heat exchange coefficient of water should be about 3000 W/m^2K.

摘要：A harmonic vortex beam is a typical vector beam with a helical wavefront at harmonic frequencies(e.g.,second and third harmonics). It provides an additional degree of freedom beyond spin-and orbitalangular momentum, which may greatly increase the capacity for communicating and encoding information. However, conventional harmonic vortex beam generators suffer from complex designs and a low nonlinear conversion efficiency. Here, we propose and experimentally demonstrate the generation of a large second-harmonic(SH) vortex beam with quasi-nonlinear spin–orbit interaction(SOI). Highquality SH vortex beams with large topological charges up to 28 are realized experimentally. This indicated that the quasi-angular-momentum of a plasmonic spiral phase plate at the excitation wavelength(topological charge, q) could be imprinted on the harmonic signals from the attached WS2 monolayer. The generated harmonic vortex beam has a topological charge of l_(n)= 2 nq(n is the harmonic order). The results may open new avenues for generating harmonic optical vortices for optical communications and enables novel multi-functional hybrid metasurface devices to manipulate harmonic beams.
