Popis: The fabrication of Cr-doped fibers (CDFs) using fiber drawing-tower combined with non-silica powder-in-tube (PIT) technique to achieve the active application of chromium ions in fiber is demonstrated for the first time. The fluorescence enhancement, transmission loss, and few-mode operation are discussed in the paper. The success in fabrication of CDFs with PIT method may open the possibility for utilizing CDFs as broadband fiber light source.
