A cladding is provided at an outer periphery of a solid-core doped with rare earth ions, and a metal layer is formed to be adjacent to the cladding to provide an optical fiber for a fiber laser device. The metal layer having an inner metal layer and an outer metal layer is disposed along an entire length of the optical fiber for a fiber laser device. An exciting light is incident to the optical fiber for a fiber laser device, and the exciting light is reflection-excited to emit a high power laser oscillation light. A monitoring current is constantly flown into the metal layer. When the disconnection of the optical fiber for a fiber laser device is detected based on the monitoring current, the energization of the optical fiber for a fiber laser device is stopped.

摘要:
An optical fiber includes a rare-earth element-added core for serving as a gain medium, and a cladding formed on a periphery of the core. Pump light propagated through the cladding is coupled into the core. The cladding is in an undulation shape in the longitudinal direction of the cladding. The undulation shape of the cladding is formed according to a grating period at which the pump light is totally reflected and propagated in the cladding. The core includes an undulation shape in a longitudinal direction of the core. The cladding includes an undulating inner cladding, and an outer cladding provided on a periphery of the inner cladding. The core and/or the cladding is circular or abnormally circular in its transverse cross section.
