Abstract
An amplification optical fiber with an optical component capable of efficiently absorbing pumping light and a fiber laser device including the same are provided. An amplification optical fiber with an optical component in a fiber laser device 1 includes: an amplification optical fiber 30 having a core 31 doped with an active element and a clad 32 through which pumping light for amplifying light to be amplified propagating through the core 31 propagates; and an optical component 50 including at least one optical fiber 53a to 53f having a first end coupled to a portion of the clad 32 and a second end coupled to at least another portion of the clad 32 at one end 35 of the amplification optical fiber 30.
