Abstract

The U-band fiber laser has attracted the attention of many researchers and industry due to its outstanding performance characteristics. U-band fiber laser is a type of laser that operates in the ultraviolet wavelength range, and its research background mainly stems from the demand for ultraviolet lasers in scientific research, medical treatment, material processing, and other fields. However, traditional ultraviolet lasers often use gas laser media, which have large volume, high power consumption, and high maintenance costs, limiting their promotion in practical applications. Therefore, researchers have begun to explore the use of fiber optic technology to achieve miniaturization, efficiency, and stability improvement of ultraviolet lasers. This article provides an overview of the working principle and application fields of U-band fiber lasers and proposes the future development direction of U-wave fiber lasers. Intended to provide useful references for further research on fiber lasers. Through continuous technological innovation and process improvement, this paper promote the further development of U-band fiber laser technology, expand its application areas, improve performance and stability, and promote its widespread application in industrial and scientific research fields.
