Abstract

Fused fiber components are critical building blocks for power scaling and reliable operation of fiber laser systems. We review different fiber fusion methods for fabricating fused fiber components, and show some examples of splicing of dissimilar fibers, fiber combiners, and fiber caps with high power handling capability, which enable power scaling of fiber lasers.
