Abstract

The design of two pumping schemes for mid-IR lasers based on photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) is illustrated. The PCFs considered in both pumping schemes are made of dysprosium-doped chalcogenide glass Dy3+:Ga5Ge20Sb10S65. The two optical sources are accurately simulated by taking into account the spe...
