  • Abstract
    A metallic binary grating with two grooves per period is applied to side-pump high-power fiber lasers for the first time. By combining a gradient algorithm and micro-genetic algorithm, the grating is optimized and the maximum coupling efficiencies of 94.77% and 77.27% for TM and TE polarization waves respectively are demonstrated.
