Abstract
We propose a novel approach of exploiting the LP02 mode in ultra-high NA confined-doped M-type fibers to ensure effective single-mode operation, thereby breaking the trade-off between mode-area scaling and ultra-high NA. This novel approach opens the door to highly rare-earth doped fibers suitable for power scaling applications. Therefore enabling, simultaneously scaling of power and slope efficiency of fiber lasers.
