Unlike their near-infrared counterparts, visible-light-emitting lasers are inefficient and complicated, impacting their broader deployment in industry, medicine, and telecommunications. To address this, we will create a new class of laser and amplifier based on an entirely new doped silicate glass fibre that will display low background loss and resilience to photodegradation from high-power visible light. This will solve one of the last important problems in fibre laser research. The primary outcome will be a series of high-power continuous-wave, ultrashort-pulse, all-fibre lasers emitting at yellow and red wavelengths, with significant benefits for space, defence, manufacturing, and human health.

与近红外激光器不同，可见光发射激光器效率低且复杂，影响了其在工业、医学和电信领域的广泛应用。为了解决这个问题，我们将创建一个基于全新的掺杂硅酸盐玻璃纤维的新型激光器和放大器，它将显示低背景损耗和高功率可见光光降解的弹性。这将解决光纤激光器研究中最后的重要问题之一。主要成果将是一系列高功率连续波、超短脉冲、全光纤激光器，发射黄色和红色波长的光，对太空、国防、制造业和人类健康都有重大好处。
