Highly ytterbium-, aluminum- and phosphorus-co-doped silica fibers with low optical losses were fabricated by the MCVD method, utilizing an all-gas-phase deposition technique. Optical and laser properties of the active fibers with a phosphosilicate and aluminophosphosilicate glass cores doped with 1.85 mol% and 1.27 mol% Yb2O3 were thoroughly investigated. With the help of hydrogen loading, it was possible to induce highly reflective Bragg grating in both fiber samples using the standard phase-mask technique and 193 nm-UV laser irradiation. The ultra-short (less than 2 cm long) Fabry–Perot laser cavities were fabricated by inscribing two fiber Bragg gratings (highly and partially reflective FBGs) directly in the core of the fiber samples. The highest pump-to-signal conversion efficiency of 47% was demonstrated in such laser configuration using phosphosilicate fiber. The reasons for the low efficiency of aluminophosphosilicate fiber are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
