Design of Mid-IR <formula formulatype="inline"><tex Notation="TeX">$\hbox{Er}^{3+}$</tex></formula>-Doped Microsphere Laser

A mid-IR lasing system based on a tapered fiber coupled to an Er<sup>3+</sup>-doped microsphere has been modeled and numerically investigated. In order to design and optimize the device performance, a dedicated 3-D numerical code exploiting the coupled mode theory and the rate equations...
