Abstract

The Yb3+-doped silica glass was prepared by the SiCl4 hydrolysis doping and powder melting technology based on high frequency plasma. The absorption and emission characteristics of the Yb3+-doped silica glass are studied at room temperature. The integrated absorption cross section, stimulated emission cross section and fluorescence lifetime are calculated to be 8.56×104 pm3, 1.39 pm2 and 0.56 ms, respectively. The Yb3+-doped microstructure fiber (MSF) was also fabricated by using the Yb3+-doped silica glass as fiber core. What’s more, the laser properties of the Yb3+-doped MSF are studied.
