Fibre Laser At 589nm Using Pr+3 - Doped Fluoride Glass

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking University of Leeds as follows: The contractor will identify the preferred fluoride glass host for the 589nm Pr+3 doped fiber laser, carry out a full optical and spectroscopic characterization of the Pr+3 doped glass, model the lasing behaviour at 589nm, and produce a small number of glass rods suitable for fibre drawing and gain measurements.
