X Abstract

We report an efficient glass-ceramic fiber laser and show that its slope efficiency 30 is not compromised by the presence of Nd-doped fluoride crystals embedded within the core of the single-mode optical fiber. In contrast, the spectroscopy (fluorescence and gain spectrum) of the Nd 3+ ions is dramatically changed by the ceramming process, an indication of strong partitioning of the rare-earth ions into the CdF 2 PbF 2 YF 3 crystal environment. The enormous potential for a new range of optical devices based on transparent glass-ceramic materials is highlighted.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
