Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Faserlaser mit einem ringförmigen Resonator (3), wobei ein erster Abschnitt des Resonators durch eine lichtleitende Faser (7) und ein zweiter Abschnitt des Resonators durch eine optisch gepumpte Verstärkerfaser (8) gebildet ist, mit einer Einkoppelstelle (4) zur Einkopplung von Licht einer Pumplichtquelle (1) in den Resonator (3) und mit einer Auskoppelstelle (5) zur Auskopplung von erzeugtem Laserlicht aus dem Resonator (3). Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen weiterentwickelten Faserlaser bereitzustellen. Diese Aufgabe löst die Erfindung dadurch, dass der Resonator (3) wenigstens ein reflektives optisches Bauelement (12, 51) aufweist, welches das in dem Resonator (3) umlaufende Laserlicht reflektiert.
