Er3+-doped phosphate glasses with improved gain characteristics for broadband optical amplifiers

Optical properties of Erbium-doped sodium aluminum telluro–phosphate glasses with compositions of 48P2O5–21Na2O–23Al2O3–(8−x)TeO2–(x)Er2O3 (where x=2–7) were investigated. From the measured optical absorption spectra, Judd–Ofelt (JO) analysis has been carried out to predict radiative properties of d...
