Abstract
High-average-power 310-fs pulses were obtained with an all-fiber chirped pulse amplification (CFA) system. Both the oscillator and the power amplifier are based on Er/Yb fiber for cladding-pumping with broad-area laser diodes. A single 10-cm-long fiber grating is employed in the CPA system as a compact femtosecond-pulse stretcher/compressor.
