Abstract
We report fabrication and testing of the first phosphate glass microstructured fiber lasers with large Er–Yb-codoped cores. For an -long cladding-pumped fiber laser, more than of continuous wave output power is demonstrated, and near single-mode beam quality is obtained for an active core area larger than .
