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.

与近红外同类产品不同，可见光的激光效率低下且复杂，从而影响了它们在工业，医学和电信中的广泛部署。为了解决这个问题，我们将基于全新的掺杂的硅酸盐玻璃纤维创建新的激光和放大器，该玻璃纤维将显示出低功能可见光光降解的较低背景损失和弹性。这将解决纤维激光研究中的最后一个重要问题之一。主要结果将是一系列高功率连续波，超短脉冲，以黄色和红色波长发射的全纤维激光器，对太空，防御，制造和人类健康具有显着好处。
