Measuring the heat generation of the fiber laser and utilizing it for optimization to produce higher power
Dr. Reza Amani (Project Associate Professor from the Center for Attosecond Laser Science, Graduate School of Science at The University of Tokyo) utilizes thermal imaging cameras to measure heat that is generated on the gain fiber of a fiber laser, thereby preventing equipment damage or injuries to operators due to a rupture that may occur when temperature limits are exceeded. These cameras can help with giving instructions to students during experiments, improving safety for operators at on-site applications, and improving performance of the equipment, etc.
