요약Next-generation laser plasma accelerators require ultrashort laser sources with both high energy and high average power, which potentially can be achieved through coherently combined fiber laser arrays. The key elements of such systems are large core fiber amplifiers that store high energies and mitigate nonlinear effects. With increasing core size, maintaining single mode operation of a fiber is critical for producing diffraction-limited beams, and for amplifying ultrashort pulses. This dissertation presents a comprehensive investigation of effectively single mode (E-SM) polygonal chirally coupled core (P-CCC) fibers for high energy, high average power pulse generation.Fourier decomposition of the fiber core shape is applied to coupled mode theory (CMT) to study modal interactions in helical fibers, describing both ideal octagonal cores and cores exhibiting shape distortions and fiber bending effects. Robust E-SM operation is experimentally demonstrated in 85µm CCC fibers, manifested by the absence of multimode spectral beating. P-CCC fibers with core shapes other than octagon provide various design options for improving E-SM performance. Furthermore, analytical and numerical exploration of core size scalability predicts that core diameter increase into 100-200µm range is possible with E-SM performance similar to that of 85µm core P-CCC fibers.High-energy and high-power scaling of Yb-doped P-CCC fibers have been investigated. Time domain combining technique coherent pulse stacking amplification (CPSA) is applied to extract 10mJ from an 85µm Yb-CCC fiber efficiently with minimal nonlinear phase accumulation. The burst of 81x1ns pulses is temporally combined and compressed to 313fs. The high-power 85µm Yb-doped P-CCC amplifier demonstrates 330W continuous wave output without transverse mode instability (TMI), and is expected to scale further into 400-500W range. Model indicates that this high TMI threshold might be attributed to the suppression of higher-order modes (HOMs). Additionally, initial development of monolithically integrated signal and pump combiners based on 85µm CCC fibers for scalable fiber amplifier arrays is reported.Two numerical models related to large core CCC fiber amplifiers have been developed. A 2D fiber amplifier model with radial-dependent ion inversion is found to be more accurate than the conventional 1D model for deeply-saturated amplification. However, while the amplified spontaneous emission and small signal gain matches with experimental results, model predicts much higher stored energies than experimentally measured. This discrepancy is critical for understanding energy scaling potential, and thus needs to be resolved in the future. A ray tracing model has been developed to calculate the pump scattering effects in double-clad P-CCC fiber amplifiers with rotating octagonal-shaped inner cladding structure, to determine fiber pumping and geometry constraints for avoiding excessive pump loss. It is found that using fibers with helical periods longer than 5mm and/or pump beams with brightness exceeding a certain critical value produce negligible pump loss.Finally, a novel fiber concept is proposed based on helical non-Hermitian refractive index and gain modulations, which enables modal performance unachievable by a Hermitian system, such as asymmetric mode coupling and unidirectional mode cleaning. General properties of such non-Hermitian fibers are studied numerically and using complex CMT, demonstrating mode cleaning performance for various index and gain modulations, and mode-phase mismatches. Combining the non-Hermitian modulation with gain P-CCC fibers provides further possibilities to control the modal interactions in large core fiber amplifiers.These contributions are important for developing large core fiber technology for high energy and high power coherently combined fiber laser systems.
