Pixelated-core large pitch optical fibre design

High power fibre laser system is playing an increasingly important role in today’s industry market. However, further power scaling of it is limited by nonlinear effects and mode instability which occurs at high power intensity. Currently the most effective mitigation strategy is to scale the mode fi...
