“…It is well known that the emission and absorption cross sections of rare earth-doped glasses depend on the glass composition, and data has been reported for a variety of Yb 3 -doped glasses [3], [15], [16], [30], [32]. Unfortunately the methods used to compute absolute values of emission cross sections in several of these papers are suspect, because they rely on the Landenburg-Fuchtbauer relationship [33], which is valid only for an ideal, two-level, homogeneous transition.…”

Abstract-A ytterbium-doped, glass, channel waveguide laser, fabricated by ion exchange, is reported. The 2.2-cm long device, using broad-band 4% output couplers, lased in the vicinity from 1020 to 1030 nm when pumped by a Ti : sapphire laser operating at 910 nm. A lasing threshold of 50 mW (launched pump) and a slope efficiency of 5% were measured. Device parameters, including fluorescence lifetimes, emission and absorption cross sections, propagation losses, and mode profiles were experimentally determined and laser performance was analytically modeled using this data.

“…In order to accomplish erbium doped glasses for broad band and gain amplification, it is crucial to evaluate the full width at half maximum (FWHM) and stimulated emission cross-section of 1.53 m band. known to be of asymmetric nature, specifying effective linewidth rather than FWHM is more meaningful [23]. According to Weber, dividing the areas of emission by the corresponding peak maxima will give the effective linewidths.…”

Multicomponent tellurite glasses containing altered concentrations of Er 2 O 3 (ranging from 0 to 1 mol%) were prepared by the standard melt quenching technique. Investigations through energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Raman scattering spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, NIR emission studies and dielectric measurement techniques were done to probe their compositional, structural, spectroscopic and dielectric behaviour. The influence of erbium ion concentration on the infrared emission (~1.53 m) of these glasses and their respective lifetimes were measured. From the measured capacitance and dissipation factor, the relative permittivity, dielectric loss and the conductivity were computed; which furnish the dielectric nature of the multicomponent tellurite glasses that depend on the frequency of the applied LCR meter. Assuming the ideal Debye behaviour as substantiated by Cole-Cole plot, an examination of the real and imaginary parts of impedance is performed. The power-law and Cole-Cole parameters were resolved for all the glass samples. From the assessment of the NIR emission analysis and dielectric properties of the glass samples, it is manifested that the Er 3+ ion concentration has played a vital role in tuning the optical and dielectric properties and the 0.5 mol% Er 3+-doped glass is confirmed as the finest composition.

“…The absorption and emission crosssections for Yb-doped germanium silicate glass fiber by Paschotta et al (1997) are shown in Fig. 1 (Paschotta et al 1997;O'Connor and Shiner 2011;Weber et al 1983), and commercial software (RP Fiber Power) was used for the simulation (Paschotta 2011). In the simulation, we used the standard ytterbium two level scheme and we included the impact of amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) using emission and absorption cross section data of Fig.…”

Numerical modeling of the impact of pump wavelength on Yb-doped fiber amplifier performance

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Ytterbium-doped optical amplifiers have become common tools for industrial applications due to their high efficiency, relatively low cost and potentially very high output power level. The efficiency of an ytterbium-doped fiber amplifier depends mainly on the absorption of pump radiation, and, therefore, optimum pump wavelengths have been proposed such as 915 nm. However, the semiconductor pump diodes batch supplied by manufacturers may exhibit a spread in the output wavelength. This paper theoretically investigates the performance of Yb-doped amplifiers for different pump wavelengths and defines the pump power penalty when the pump source does not emit at the optimum wavelength. The penalty has been defined as normalized excess pump power required to achieve the desired gain.
