Abstract :
In this work nonlinear fiber CPA system is investigated, in which self-phase modulation is utilized both in stretcher fiber and power amplifier in order to achieve femtosecond output pulses. System performance using different power amplifier designs with core diameters ranging from 12 to 33 μm is experimentally investigated. Achieved results are compared and analyzed.
