Abstract
Holmium fibre lasers are required for remote sensing, LIDAR and some medical applications. In comparison to thulium fibre lasers, the holmium emission provides efficient access to the 2070 nm - 2150 nm wavelength range [1, 2]. We present the first report of the tuneable range of a resonantly, cladding pumped holmium fibre laser. This is compared to the tuning range of a core pumped holmium doped fibre.
