Abstract
The thermal degradation of double clad optical fiber coatings is known to be the prime limiting factor for the operation of high power CW fiber lasers. In this paper, we conduct a study of thermal effects in high power CW fiber lasers. A particular focus is put on heating at the splice points and in the doped fiber due to the quantum defect in 100-W class CW fiber lasers. A theoretical model and experimental measurements taken with a high resolution IR camera on 125 to 400 μm diameter fibers are presented. Thermal contact resistance between the fiber and its heat sink are considered in the conduction heat transfer model and measured for different geometries. Proper designs for cooling apparatus are proposed and optimization of the active fiber is discussed. Some predictions for power scaling and temperature management of fiber lasers to kW power level are also described.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
