Photodarkening as a heat source in ytterbium doped fiber amplifiers

Šušnjar, Peter (avtor), Agrež, Vid (avtor), Petkovšek, Rok (avtor)

Theoretical and experimental evaluation of the photodarkening effect as a heat source in ytterbium doped fibers is presented. An additional non-radiative decay channel that opens after photodarkening the fiber is identified via fluorescence lifetime reduction and as an additional heat source proportional to inversion. It is included in the heat source model which was tested on a core-pumped fiber amplifiers. High temperature elevation at low pump powers shows potential heat-related problems in high inversion systems that are more susceptible to photodarkening.
