	%X A compact tunable 10 W picosecond source based on
Yb-doped fiber amplification of gain switch laser diode has been
demonstrated. A gain switch semiconductor laser diode was used as
the seed source, and a multi-stage single mode Yb-doped fiber
preamplifier was combined with two large mode area double-clad
Yb-doped fiber main amplifiers to construct the amplification system.
The tunable pulses with high stability and excellent beam quality
