Pr3+ -Doped Fluoride Glass for a 589 nm Fibre Laser

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking University of Leeds as follows: The contractor will investigate the development of Pr3+-doped fluoroindate and fluoroaluminate host glasses to determine if the chemistry of their composition can be adjusted so that useful gain at 589 nm can be achieved. 8 glass samples will be delivered to AFRL for evaluation.
