Ion-exchanged tapered waveguide laser in neodymium-doped BK7 glass
We report what is to our knowledge the first operation of a planar dielectric tapered-waveguide laser. The waveguide laser is fabricated by potassium-ion exchange in Nd<sup>3+</sup> -doped BK7 glass and consists of a single-mode channel waveguide of a few micrometers' width followed...
