In order to improve the output power of solar-pumped single-crystal fiber (SCF) lasers, a novel solar concentrating system is
proposed, which consists of a parabolic mirror, a 3D-CPC, and a hollow-core reflector. By ray tracing with TracePro, influence of
the fiber’s diameter and the hollow reflector’s shape on the solar absorption efficiency is theoretically investigated. A typical
Nd:YAG SCF with a core-diameter of 1 mm, length of 150 mm and doping concentration of 1 at.% is selected for simulation of
laser operation. Output characteristics of the laser are analyzed by solving the rate equation and the power transmission
equation, and the maximum output power and solar-to-laser conversion efficiency are 60.62 W and 4.64%, respectively. Thermal
effects of the laser are simulated by the Comsol software. When the input solar power is 1307.4 W, the temperature decreases
sharply first and then saturates along the SCF fiber, with the maximum value of 69.18℃ at the input fiber end. This concentrating
system can effectively overcome the limitation of end-launching solar power into SCFs, and has great potential in improving the
output power of solar fiber lasers.
