Abstract

The article focuses on chirally coupled core (3C) optical fibers, which improve the designs of a fiber master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA). Topics include the components of MOPA such as the large-mode-area (LMA) optical fiber technologies, the quality requirements of near-diffraction-limited beam, and suppression of the higher-order modes (HOMs).
