Ytterbium Doped Laser Glass

Nd doped glasses Erbium laser glasses Ytterbium doped glasses Faraday rotator glasses
 

Yb3+-doped glass materials are desirable for generation of ultra short pulses and as tunable laser sources because   of their broad absorption and emission bandwidths

 

  Yb3+ doped phosphate glass (YP1):
 
Long lifetime
  Very low temperature coefficient of optical
     path length of +0.42x10-6/oC
  Fluorescence lifetime >2 ms

Yb3+ doped borete glass(YB1):
Low thermal expansion coefficient
Negative temperature coefficient of
   refractive index
High Cross section for stimulated
   emission of 1.65 X 10 -20 cm2
