Emission at 1.3 microns from dysprosium-doped Ga:La:S glass

The potential for optical amplification at 1.3 µm is demonstrated in a dysprosium-doped gallium-lanthanum-sulphide based glass. Lifetimes of 59µs are observed for the <sup>6</sup>H<sub>9/2</sub> - <sup>6</sup>H<sub>15/2</sub> transition for which the e...
