What is Fibers for High-power Lasers and Amplifiers about?

A review is given on the recent developments of fibers for high-power cladding-pumped fiber lasers. The structures necessary for an efficient pump light absorption are described and the reasons for the use of silica as the main host material are explained. The advantages and problems of the new structures for high power stability like large-mode-area or microstructured fibers are discussed. The results from a successful kW-fiber-laser experiment are used to underline the importance of optimized structures and low background losses in the fiber core.
