Pr3+-doped fluoride glass for a 589 nm fibre laser

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Satellite communication systems employ lasers at 589 nm (sodium D line) to generate a "bright star" reference used for correcting atmospheric distortion. This wavelength is currently available only from largescale laser systems such as dye, OPO or sum-frequency Nd-YAG, which are unsuitable for small-scale or mobile communication systems. We describe a Pr3+-doped fluoride glass suitable for a 589 nm fibre laser.
