Enhanced photosensitivity in tin-codoped germanosilicate optical fibres

Enhanced photosensitivity is found in Tin-codoped germanosilicate optical fibers. A photo-induced refractive index change (~1.4 x 10<sup>-3</sup> times larger than that observed in pure germanosilicate fibers has been demonstrated. Unlike the technique of using Boron-codoping to enhance...
