Laser action generated within a light pipe: A concept

Abstract

Laser light could be generated within light pipe itself, thereby eliminating coupling losses. Theoretical calculations have shown feasibility of light-pipe laser propagating in circularly-polarized TE mode. It is predicted that fiber-optic distributed-feedback laser would have gain on order of 25 dB.
