1.9 μm lasing with Tm3+/Yb3+ co-doped air-clad fiber and 931 nm pumping

A 1.9 μm single mode laser is demonstrated by employing a newly developed large mode area Tm3+/Yb3+ co-doped air-clad photonic crystal fiber (PCF) in conjunction with 931 nm pumping for the first time. The PCF has an Yb3+ and Tm3+ ion concentrations of about 16 × 10−19 and 4 × 10−19 ions/cc, respect...
