High power fiber lasers
Fri, 14/03/2025 - 12:00 to 13:00
Location:
Speaker:
Dr. Thomas Schreiber
Affiliation:
Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering
Synopsis:
In addition to a brief introduction to the general research focus of the Fraunhofer IOF Jena, the presentation will provide a scientific overview of recent work on high-power fiber lasers. It will review the physics of scaling laws and discuss new findings that will motivate the adaptation of these laws. The talk will also cover related advancements in distributed fiber sensor technology, glass chemistry for doped fibers, and the development of novel measurement technologies, all aimed at pushing boundaries further to enable new applications and scientific cases.
Biography:
Dr Thomas Schreiber graduated with a degree in general physics in 2001. After completing his doctorate in the field of nonlinear fibre optics in 2006, he set up a research group at the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering in Jena, from which the ‘Laser and Fibre Technology’ department emerged. In his current position as head of the department, the current research area covers high-performance fibre technology from the fibre and component to the system level for basic, industrial and space applications. He has published more than 160 publications and conference papers, three book chapters and more than ten invited talks, resulting in 5245 citations and an h-index of 36.
