1.3 μm emission of neodymium and praseodymium in tellurite-based glasses

Tellurite glasses are examples of non-silica oxide glass hosts which are the subject of intensive materials research. Because their characteristic phonon energies are lower than those of silica glasses, praseodymium- and neodymium-doped tellurite glasses are considered for 1.3 μm fiber amplifiers. T...

Description
Summary:Tellurite glasses are examples of non-silica oxide glass hosts which are the subject of intensive materials research. Because their characteristic phonon energies are lower than those of silica glasses, praseodymium- and neodymium-doped tellurite glasses are considered for 1.3 μm fiber amplifiers. The glass formation, waveguide fabrication, optical properties and suitability for fiber drawing of sodium, zinc, tellurium oxide glasses doped with rare earth ions are described.
