Suppression of stimulated Raman scattering in a high power Yb-doped fiber amplifier using a W-type core with fundamental mode cut-off

We demonstrate the suppression of stimulated Raman scattering in a high power, single-mode Yb-doped fiber amplifier using a W-type core structure. Raman-scattered light is not guided by the core. The amplifier consists of a master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) system, seeded with 103 ps pulses a...
