Research abstract
Not Available We propose to develop ultra broadband Er3+-doped tellutrite glass fiber amplifier for the 1.54 ¿m optical communication networks. Our goal is to demonstrate a flat gain bandwidth greater than 75nm in this special glass fiber. The effect of glass composition on spectral, thermal and physical properties will be investigated extensively. New Er3+ doped tellurite glasses will be developed and optical fibers will be fabricated. The demonstration of this ultra broadband Er3+1doped tellutrite glass fiber amplifier will pave the way for the emerging ultrahigh speed optical networks using dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) technology
