Abstract
In this contribution a comprehensive spectroscopic study of Dy3+ doped fluoroindate glass samples and glass fiber is presented. The mid-infrared (MIR) emission from DyF3 doped bulk glass samples (0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 mol.%) is investigated when pumping at 1320 nm. A broadband mid-infrared emission spanning from 2800 nm to 3500 nm with 0.88 ms emission lifetime of the 6H13/2 level in 0.2 mol.% glass sample was observed. Also 0.2 mol.% of DyF3 doped fluoroindate glass fiber was drawn and its photoluminescence properties were studied showing the emission spectrum to 3500 nm and the 6H13/2 level lifetime of 0.91 ms. The results obtained show that fluoroindate glass is a good candidate for further development of tunable fiber lasers and broadband mid-infrared spontaneous emission fiber sources.
