T. Komukai et al., HIGHLY EFFICIENT AND TUNABLE ND3-MU-M BAND( DOPED FLUORIDE FIBER LASER OPERATING IN 1.3), Electronics Letters, 29(9), 1993, pp. 755-757
A highly efficient and tunable Nd3+ doped fluoride fibre laser operati
ng in the 1-3 mum band pumped at 0.8 mum is demonstrated. The pump las
er is a titanium sapphire laser and the tuning element is a dielectric
multicoated bandpass filter inserted in the cavity. The oscillation w
avelength was successfully tuned from 1.315 to 1.348 mum for the first
time.
