Abstract
Optical properties of PbS quantum dot (QD)-embedded silicate glasses prepared through post annealing were investigated. By modulating the heat treatment condition, tunable near-infrared (NIR) photoluminescence (PL) was obtained. Noticeable optical amplification was achieved at both 1330nm and 1550nm windows with similar amplification characteristics in single PbS QD-embedded glass, which indicated that broadband optical amplification is expected at the entire PL band of PbS QD-embedded glass. The PbS QD-embedded glass with multi-wavelength optical amplification is promising as the gain medium of broadband fiber amplifiers and tunable fiber lasers.
