Broadband single transverse-mode fluorescence sources based on ribs fabricated in pulsed laser deposited Ti:sapphire waveguides

Active rib waveguides with depths and widths varying from 3 to 5 µm and from 9 to 24 µm, respectively, have been structured by Ar+-beam etching in pulsed laser deposited Ti:sapphire layers. Losses in the channel structures were essentially at the same levels as the unstructured planar waveguide host...
