Fig. 2. (a) Microscope images of (a) Bi-doped germanate glass fiber and (b) microsphere. (c) XRD patterns of Bi-doped germanate glass, glass fibers and microspheres.
Fig. 3. Experimental setup for characterizing a Bi-doped microsphere laser. An 808 nm laser diode is used as the excitation source.
Fig. 4. (a) WGMs observed when light is coupled into doped microsphere via the fiber taper coupler. (b) Laser emission (red curve) from the Bi-doped microsphere when the absorbed pump power reaches 215 μW. As a reference, the fluorescence spectrum from the Bi-doped multi-component glass is also shown (blue curve).
Fig. 5. (a) Microsphere laser output power as a function of estimated absorbed pump power at 1305.8 nm. The straight red line is a linear fit to the experimental data. (b) Oscilloscope trace of the Bi-doped microsphere laser recorded as the pump is scanned in frequency. (c) Schematic of the experimental setup for the linewidth measurement of Bi laser emission.
