Linear-polarization, CW generation of 60 W power in a single-mode, Tm fibre laser

Stable, 60 W average power, single-mode CW generation in the spectral range 1800-2050 nm in linear-polarization format is achieved in Tm-doped fibre pumped at 1567 nm. Polarization extinction ratios in excess of 23 dB are demonstrated.
