Extremely powerful lasers are required for various applications in science and industry. The output power of fiber lasers, however, has limits. When the light power inside a single-mode fiber amplifier reaches a certain threshold, the intensity profile out of the fiber starts to become distorted due to so called thermal mode instabilities (TMI) which are not yet fully understood and experimentally difficult to characterize. To investigate TMI, fast in-fiber temperature sensing with a high resolution is required. This has not been achieved yet. We present first measurements towards a setup for high precision in-fiber temperature measurements of an optical fiber amplifier based on Brillouin sensing.
