Abstract
A fiber laser apparatus includes: a short-length type fiber to which an active element is added and that has a length of 300 mm or less: a ferrule attached to an end of the fiber; and a housing that accommodates the fiber and supports the fiber with the ferrule. Each of the housing and the ferrule is composed of a material having a first thermal expansion coefficient that is equal to or have a predetermined difference from a second thermal expansion coefficient of a raw material of the fiber. The predetermined difference between the first and second thermal expansion coefficients is within −8.6×10to 11.4×10/K.
