Abstract
A fiber laser apparatus includes a pump light source that emits pump light; a pump delivery fiber that guides the pump light; an amplifying optical fiber that is optically coupled to the pump delivery fiber and guides laser light; and a filter element that causes more loss of light of a wavelength range that includes a peak wavelength of at least one of Stokes light and anti-Stokes light than the laser light. The Stokes light and anti-Stokes light result from four-wave mixing involving a plurality of guide modes in a multi-mode fiber that guides the laser light. The filter element is disposed between: the pump delivery fiber and the amplifying optical fiber, the amplifying optical fiber and the multi-mode fiber, or at the multi-mode fiber.
