In recent years, there has been a widespread in the develoment of new host materials to for rare-earth doped solid-state optical devices. Amongt many alternatives, chalcogenide glasses [1] have emerged as serious competitors for applications as in 1.3 μm optical fiber amplifiers, mid-infrared lasers, upconversion lasers and satturable absorbers [2].
