Ultra-wideband tellurite-based Raman fibre amplifier

Quantifying Raman gain coefficients in tellurite glasses

“…Tellurite fiber has been previously evaluated for its Raman gain performance and exhibited similar performance to that observed in our studies, however no compositional information on this glass was provided [4]. In this study we have examined a range of tellurite glasses due to their high nonlinearity as compared to other oxide glasses.…”

Thermal and optical properties of TeO2–ZnO–BaO glasses

“…Moreover, because of their wide glass-forming range, their composition can be adjusted to further optimize these optical properties. [7][8][9].…”

1.4μm emission properties and local environments of Tm3+ ions in tellurite glass modified with MoO3

“…As such, other glass materials with bigger Raman scattering coefficient in a wider Stokes shift band have been demanded. Since the advent of tellurite-based RFA that exhibited appreciably wider gain bandwidth in a much shorter interaction length than silica-based RFA [10], attention has been paid to tellurite glass as a RFA material [11][12][13][14]. The Raman scattering coefficient and also bandwidth of tellurite glass can be controlled through compositional adjustments.…”
