Abstract
A room temperature laser system for producing a CW laser emission at substially 2.3 microns is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, the laser system comprises a laser diode source for producing a CW pump beam at a preselected wavelength; and a fiber laser doped with thulium activator ions sufficient to produce an output CW laser emission at a wavelength in the range of 2.2-2.5 microns when the fiber laser is pumped by the CW pump beam.
