Abstract
Fiber laser devices, systems, and methods for reducing Raman spectrum in emissions from a resonant cavity. A fiber laser oscillator that is to generate an optical beam may include a Raman reflecting output coupler that strongly reflects a Raman component pumped within the resonant cavity, and partially reflects a signal component to sustain the oscillator and emit a signal that has a reduced Raman component. A Raman filtering output coupler may comprise a superstructure fiber grating, and such a grating may be chirped or otherwise designed to have a desired bandwidth.
