Towards diode-pumped mid-infrared praseodymium-ytterbium-doped fluoride fiber lasers. Proc. SPIE 10512, Fiber Lasers XV: Technology and Systems, 2018, (Paper 105120S).
Abstract
We explore the potential of a new mid-infrared laser transition in praseodymium-doped fluoride fiber for emission around 3.4 μm, which can be conveniently pumped by 0.975 μm diodes via ytterbium sensitizer co-doping. Optimal cavity designs are determined through spectroscopic measurements and numerical modeling, suggesting that practical diode-pumped watt-level mid-infrared fiber sources beyond 3 μm could be achieved.
