摘要
A process is developed to make potassium ion-exchanged waveguides in erbium-ytterbium co-doped phosphate glasses. The effects of pump and signal wavelengths, and of the waveguide length on the gain in the waveguides are investigated. At a signal wavelengthof 1.530 mu m, 19.5dB internal gain is achieved in a 6mm long waveguide; the measured noise factor is 4dB.
