In this paper, photodarkening effect in Ytterbium doped fiber (YDF) amplifier is experimentally investigated and analyzed. The experimental measurement on such effect is conducted on an YDF amplifier at 1064 nm wavelength emission, under both saturated and unsaturated operational regimes. Our result...
