Abstract
Ytterbium-doped phosphosilicate fibers with phosphate-like characteristics, lifetime and doping- levels are demonstrated, offering significantly increased peak powers from shorter fiber amplifiers. Efficient fibers with up to 4700dB/m peak absorption at 976nm and low photo-darkening are demonstrated.
