Broadband emission from a multicore fiber fabricated with granulated oxides
Publisher DOI
Abstract
We demonstrate a multicore multidopant fiber which, when pumped with a single pump source around ∼800 nm , emits a more than one octave-spanning fluorescence spectrum ranging from 925 to 2300 nm . The fiber preform is manufactured from granulated oxides and the individual cores are doped with five different rare earths, i.e., Nd3+ , Yb3+ , Er3+ , Ho3+ , and Tm3+ .
