Improvement of the Tm3+:3H4 level lifetime in silica optical fibres by lowering the local phonon energy
Basile Faure, Wilfried Blanc, Bernard Dussardier +1
The role of some glass network modifiers on the quantum efficiency of the near-infrared fluorescence from the 3H4 level of Tm3+ ion in silica-based doped fibres is studied. Modific…

Thulium environment in a silica doped optical fibre
Wilfried Blanc, Thomas Lee Sebastian, Bernard Dussardier +4
Thulium-doped optical fibre amplifiers (TDFA) are developed to extend the optical telecommunication wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) bandwidth in the so-called S-band (1460-1…
