Abstract
A diode-pumped, actively Q-switched fiber laser oscillator with an average output power of more than has been realized through the use of a core erbium-doped ZBLAN fiber and an acousto-optic modulator; to our knowledge, this is the first pulsed fiber laser in the class. Pulse energy up to and pulse duration down to , corresponding to a peak power of , were achieved at a repetition rate of .
