Gas-in-glass—a new Raman-gain medium: molecular hydrogen in solid-silica optical fibers

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A new Raman-gain medium consisting of molecular hydrogen dissolved at high pressure in low-loss solid-silica optical fibers is described. Stimulated Raman gain at 0.88-μm wavelength was measured in a half-kilometer length of this H2-diffused fiber by using a krypton-laser pump and an injection-laser probe. The gain coefficient determined from these experiments at 0.88 μm is 5 × 10−12 cm/W. The overtone absorption spectrum of high-pressure hydrogen in silica was observed.
