  THIS PROPOSAL IS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN INNOVATIVE, HIGH POWER, AND EXTREMELY RELIABLE 1.26-MICRON HO-DOPED FLUORIDE FIBER AMPLIFIER. THE PROPOSED FIBER AMPLIFIER CONSISTS OF A HO-DOPED FLUORIDE FIBER PRE-AMPLIFIER AND POWER AMPLIFIER. LASER AT 1187 NM WILL BE USED AS A RESONANT PUMP LASER SOURCE FOR HO3+-DOPED FIBER LASER. HIGH GAIN PER UNIT LENGTH AT 1.2 MICRON CAN BE ACHIEVED IN HO-DOPED FLUORIDE GLASS FIBER DUE TO THE STRONG PUMP ABSORPTION AT 1187 NM AND STRONG EMISSION AT 1.2 MICRON TRANSITION. THE PROPOSED HO-DOPED FIBER AMPLIFIER WILL BE IMPLEMENTED INTO A MOPA SYSTEM WITH A 1.26 MICRON SINGLE FREQUENCY HO-DOPED FIBER LASER. THIS TYPE OF FIBER BASED SEED LASER IS NEEDED FOR REMOTE SENSING OF O AND O -N FOR MEASURING ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE. CONCURRENT ON-BOARD O2 MEASUREMENTS USING LINES AT 1.26 M TO ALLOW FOR THE BEST RELATIVE COMPENSATION FOR AEROSOL SCATTERING ALONG THE LINE-OF-SIGHT OF THE CO2 AND O2 MEASUREMENTS. THE PARTICULAR O2 BAND WAS CHOSEN SO THAT THE SURFACE AND ATMOSPHERIC SCATTERING CHARACTERISTICS FROM AEROSOLS AND THIN CLOUDS WOULD BE NEARLY THE SAME AS FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF CO2 AT 1.57 M. IT'S PART OF PROGRAM TO PROVIDE SPACE-BASED ACTIVE MEASUREMENTS OF CO2 FOR ACTIVE SENSING OF CO2 EMISSIONS OVER NIGHTS, DAYS, AND SEASONS (ASCENDS) MISSION.

  WE PROPOSE AN ALL-FIBER BASED 2.05-MICRON SINGLE FREQUENCY, NARROW LINEWIDTH SEEDER LASER WITH 10 NM TUNING RANGE AND 5GHZ FREQUENCY MODULATION FOR NEXT GENERATION LIDAR SYSTEM. HIGHLY TM-DOPED FIBER LASER IS USED AS A RESONANT PUMP SOURCE IN ORDER TO REDUCE THE PHASE NOISE AND LASER LINEWIDTH. AN ENVIRONMENT INSENSITIVE PACKAGE WILL BE USED TO MINIMIZE THE LASER PHASE NOISE AND LINEWIDTH. HO3+-DOPED FIBER IS USED FOR SEED LASER GENERATION, DUE TO ITS STRONG EMISSION AT 2.05 MICRON. A PIEZO ATTACHED TO THE LASER CAVITY IS USED TO MODULATE THE FREQUENCY TO 5 GHZ WITH SPEED UP TO 10KHZ. THE LASER CAN BE CONTINUOUSLY TUNED OVER 10 NM RANGE. THE SINGLE FREQUENCY 2.05-MICRON FIBER LASER CAN BE USED TO BUILD COHERENT LASER RADARS AND DIFFERENTIAL ABSORPTION LIDARS (DIALS) TO PERFORM INSTANT MEASUREMENT OF VELOCITY AND CONCENTRATION OF CO2 AND OTHER GASES , AEROSOLS, CLOUDS. THE HIGH-SPEED FREQUENCY MODULATION (5 GHZ) OF SINGLE FREQUENCY FIBER LASER USED AS LOCAL OSCILLATOR COVERS TUNING OVER A SELECTED CO2 ABSORPTION LINE. THE LARGE WAVELENGTH TUNING RANGE (10 NM) ALSO ENABLE SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS TO EXPLORE THE FEASIBILITY OF USING SUCH LASER FOR OTHER REMOTE SENSING APPLICATIONS.
