In this work, we demonstrate a three-stage all-fiber master oscillator power amplifier (MOPA) system emitting over 1 W of the linearly polarized narrow-linewidth pulse output power with 10 kHz pulse repetition frequency and 400 ns pulse width without the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) at ~1.5 µm. Initially, we analyze the effect of the ASE on the first derivative of backscatter intensity via a contrast experiment. The experiment results show that the noise intensity with angle of inclination is affected by the ASE of the amplifier, thereby decreasing the signal-to-noise ratio of the output power. The laser is characterized by a very low or no ASE level of the output signal when acquiring the first derivative of backscatter intensity with low noise. This condition provides a reference for improving the properties of the laser used for cloud detection. |
