Use of a Peltier element permits adjustment of fibre temperature over the range 5–41°C, providing a tuning range of 30nm for the 3.5 μm laser. In this temperature range the laser emits nearly 1 mW at 130mW pump power.

Inspec keywords: fibre lasers; temperature control; erbium; Peltier effect; laser tuning
