Spectroscopy of potential mid-infrared laser transitions in gallium lanthanum sulphide glass
Spectroscopy of potential mid-infrared laser transitions in gallium lanthanum sulphide glass
This paper presents experimental results on the mid-infrared emission of rare-earth doped gallium lanthanum sulphide glasses and fibres. Measured fluorescence includes the 3.4 µm transition (1G4 to 3F4) in Pr3+-doped Ga:La:S fibre, the 3.6 µm transition (4F9/2 to 4 I 9/2) in Er3+- doped Ga:La:S fibre, and the 4.3 µm transition (6H11/2 to 6H13/2 ) in Dy3+-doped Ga:La:S bulk glass. Fibre lasers with these emission wavelengths would be of interest for gas sensing applications.

Abstract
This paper presents experimental results on the mid-infrared emission of rare-earth doped gallium lanthanum sulphide glasses and fibres. Measured fluorescence includes the 3.4 µm transition (1G4 to 3F4) in Pr3+-doped Ga:La:S fibre, the 3.6 µm transition (4F9/2 to 4 I 9/2) in Er3+- doped Ga:La:S fibre, and the 4.3 µm transition (6H11/2 to 6H13/2 ) in Dy3+-doped Ga:La:S bulk glass. Fibre lasers with these emission wavelengths would be of interest for gas sensing applications.
