Abstract

The paper describes the design of a medium infrared fiber laser based on a dysprosium-doped chalcogenide glass Dy3+ : Ga5 Ge20Sb10S65. To obtain a high efficiency, the fiber laser is followed by an optical amplifier making use of residual pump power. The optimized optical source exploits a master os...
