Er3+ doped niobic-tungsten-tellurite glasses doped with concentration of Er3+ ion up to 3 wt% were fabricated The effect of Er3+ doping concentration on thermal stability and optical properties was investigated in order to obtain the most suitable rare earth content for developing 1.5 um compact fiber amplifier pumped with a commercial telecom 980 nm laser diode. The maximum doping concentration allowed was found to be around 1.77x10^20 ions/cm3, for which a broad 1.5 um emission spectra of 65 nm FWHM and a lifetime of 3.4 ms for the 4I13/2 level was measured

Abstract

Er3+ doped niobic-tungsten-tellurite glasses doped with concentration of Er3+ ion up to 3 wt% were fabricated The effect of Er3+ doping concentration on thermal stability and optical properties was investigated in order to obtain the most suitable rare earth content for developing 1.5 um compact fiber amplifier pumped with a commercial telecom 980 nm laser diode. The maximum doping concentration allowed was found to be around 1.77x10^20 ions/cm3, for which a broad 1.5 um emission spectra of 65 nm FWHM and a lifetime of 3.4 ms for the 4I13/2 level was measured
