Amplification of femtosecond pulses in two-stage chirped pulse amplification system based on large mode area photonic bandgap fibres

The use of 40 μm diameter core Yb-doped Bragg fibers in two-stage CPA system is reported with maximum amplified pulse energy limited by the experimental set-up only. 82 W average output power before compression from photonic bandgap fiber was obtained.
