Abstract

Tm3+ is an interesting activator ion for a glass fiber laser because it emits in regions of the spectrum where such lasers have not previously operated. The fiber waveguide geometry confers a tow threshold for laser action. Therefore, semiconductor diode laser pumping is a possibility since Tm3+ has an absorption band at ≃ 800 nm.
