ABSTRACT

In this paper, we focus on the fabrication and investigation of optical properties of W-type and Graded-index single-mode Bi-doped germanosilicate fibers. The laser and gain characteristics of Bi-doped fibers of new designs were studied. It was shown that by variation of doping profile, it is possible to change characteristic parameters (active absorption, unsaturable loss level) of the active medium and, as a consequence, achieve an improvement of the performance of the optical devices based on these types of fibers. As a progress one can consider the creation of a Bi-doped fiber laser operating at 1460 nm with a record efficiency of 72% using a relatively short active fiber (L = 75 m); and a 20-dB Bi-doped fiber amplifier (L = 120 m) with a pump power of 45 mW (for the input signal powers lower than 30 µW) having a high gain efficiency of 0.52 dB/mW. We suggest that the obtained results could be a driver for further investigation in this direction.

ABSTRACT

A watt-level all-fiber laser radiating at the wavelength of 1.7 µm in a continuous-wave regime was developed by using bismuth-doped high-germania optical fiber. A maximum slope efficiency of 33% with respect to the launched pump power was achieved. The dependencies of the slope efficiencies of bismuth-doped fiber laser versus the length of active fiber and reflectivity of the output mirror were obtained.

ABSTRACT

Saturable absorption in bismuth-doped glasses was found to have a noticeable influence on soliton interaction and group formation. This phenomenon, observed in 1450 nm mode-locked bismuth-doped fiber laser, shows the distinct feature of the multiple pulse regime, which appears as a stationary pulse group whose length can be spread over the whole cavity length by variation of the pump power and polarization. Pulse positioning within the ensemble depends on the saturation fluence and the relatively fast recovery dynamics of bismuth fiber.

ABSTRACT

Excited-state absorption (ESA) in various bismuth-doped fibers (BDFs) was investigated. No significant ESA in IR emission bands of Bi-doped germanosilicate and phosphosilicate fibers was found. Considerable ESA was observed in Bi-doped aluminosilicate fibers at 800-1700 nm. The ESA spectra of the aluminosilicate BDFs with different bismuth concentration were measured at room and 77 K temperature. Significant dependence of the ESA on the bismuth concentration and the fiber temperature was found.

ABSTRACT

An efficient CW bismuth fiber laser operating around 1.46 µm with an efficiency of >50% and an output power of >20 W has been developed on a bismuth-doped GeO(2)-SiO(2) fiber. The laser demonstrates weak dependence of the output power on temperature in comparison with bismuth lasers operating near 1.15 and 1.3 µm. The laser generation has been obtained in the range 1.39 to 1.54 µm. The first linearly polarized bismuth-doped fiber laser at 1.46 µm based on a PANDA-type fiber has been demonstrated.

ABSTRACT

A 24 dB gain bismuth-doped fiber amplifier at 1430 nm pumped by a 65 mW commercial laser diode at 1310 nm is reported for the first time (to our knowledge). A 3 dB bandwidth of about 40 nm, a noise figure of 6 dB, and a power conversion efficiency of about 60% are demonstrated. The temperature behavior of the gain spectrum is examined.

ABSTRACT

Optical fibers with bismuth-doped silicate and germanate glass cores were fabricated by the modified chemical vapor deposition technique (solution and vapor-phase Bi incorporation). The fibers revealed an efficient luminescence with a maximum in the 1050-1200 nm spectral range, FWHM up to 200 nm, and a lifetime of the order of 1 ms.
