Observation of photoluminescence of semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots in the core of photonic bandgap fiber

Fabrication of Large Core Yb2O3 Doped Phase Separated Yttria-Alumino Silicate Nano-Particles Based Optical Fiber for Use as Fiber Laser

“…Dove et al (Dove et al, 2001) fabricated a glass optical fiber doped with Cd 3 P 2 nanomaterial, obtaining a gain of 7.1dB in a 4 mm-length special fiber. Kawanishi et al (Kawanishi et al, 2006) injected semiconductor quantum dots solution into a holey optical fiber. On the other hand solution doping technique (Bandyopadhyay et al, 2004;Bhadra et al, 2003;Sen et al, 2005;Townsend et al, 1987) in the modified chemical vapour deposition (MCVD) method (Li , 1985) is the most common way to incorporate the RE ions into the core of silica optical fiber preform.…”

Characteristics of photoluminescence and Raman spectra of InP doped silica fiber

“…Single-crystal semiconductor materials integrated into an optical hollow fiber has presented greater functionality of the optical fiber in term of its electronic characteristics [3]. In addition, compound semiconductors are also fabricated as the fiber core [8][9][10][11][12][13]. Due to their large nonlinearity and fast response time, IV-VI semiconductor quantum dots (PbS, PbSe and PbTe) are formed in the fiber to increase the nonlinearity [8].…”

“…Thermal dependence of absorption and fluorescence bands of semiconductor nanocrystallite was investigated in the application of fiber sensor [9,10]. Beside that, another important application for compound semiconductors is the promising candidate for broadband amplification [11,12]. The main advantage of semiconductor compound doped in the fiber over the traditional rare earth doped fiber is the broad wavelength range of amplification with high gain level [13].…”

Simple analysis of water-filled hollow-core silica photonic bandgap fiber

“…The operating wavelength of a quantum dot is controlled by its size. A PBF core can be filled with nano-particles in the form of a water solution [8,9,10].…”
