Erbium-doped Lithium Niobate waveguide lasers: recent progress

Erbium diffusion doping of LiNbO3 (e.g. 30 nm / 1130 °C / 150 hrs) is the preferred method to fabricate an excellent laser material for integrated optics. After Er-doping single mode channel waveguides are defined by the standard indiffusion technique of Ti-stripes. By optical pumping at λ = 1480 nm a wavelenth dependent gain of up to 2 dB/cm is achieved (1530 nm < λ < 1610 nm). Different types...

Frequency stabilization of a frequency-doubled 197.2 THz distributed feedback diode laser on rubidium 5S1/2-7S1/2 two-photon transitions

A 197.2THz (1520.2nm) ITU-T grid distributed feedback (DFB) diode laser is frequency stabilized at 197.198THz by 1ocking its second harmonic (SH) signal on the rubidium 5S1/27S1/2 two-photon transition at 394.396THz (760.1 nm). With 100mW from the DFB diode laser and amplifying by an erbium-doped fiber amplifier, we obtain an SH power of 15mW using a periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) wa...

Frequency doubling of femtosecond erbium-fiber soliton lasers in periodically poled lithium niobate.

We report efficient frequency doubling of passively mode-locked femtosecond erbium-fiber lasers. Quasi-phase-matched second-harmonic generation in periodically poled lithium niobate is used to generate 8.1 mW of 190-fs (FWHM), 90-pJ pulses at 777 nm with a conversion efficiency greater than can be obtained with existing birefringently phase-matched nonlinear materials. A dispersion-compensation...

Characterization of erbium doped lithium niobate crystals and waveguides

Optical planar waveguides have been fabricated by the titanium in-diffusion process in lithium niobate crystals activated with erbium ions. The waveguides were studied by m-line technique in order to recover the index profile. The effect of the Ti in-diffusion on the structural and spectroscopic properties of the lithium niobate crystals was investigated by Raman and photoluminescence spectrosc...

Photoluminescence and attenuation of spray-pyrolysis-deposited erbium-doped Y2O3 planar optical waveguides.

Erbium-doped Y20 3 planar optical waveguides have been fabricated by spray-pyrolysis deposition. The attenuation spectrum of the waveguide shows peaks that are due to absorption of the erbium ions. The as-deposited layers also show photoluminescence sharply peaking at 1540 nm with additional Stark splitting. The thin layers of Er 3:Y 203 obtained are promising for the realization of integrated-...
