Abstract: Ion-exchangeable glasses having high hardness and high elastic modulus. The base cover glass formulation includes Na2O, Y2O3, Al2O3, and SiO2. The glasses may further include P2O5, B2O3, and any of the alkali, alkaline earth, and rare earth oxides, as well as other divalent metal oxides. The ion-exchangeable glasses offer higher hardness, which provides more resistance to micro-ductile scratching damage. Ion-exchange of these glasses increases their resistance to cracking caused by frictive damage and increases retained strength following formation of surface damage.

Abstract: A method of making an erbium-doped optical fiber for use in optical amplifiers according to the present invention includes the step of providing a substrate tube. High purity silica-based cladding layers are deposited on the inside of the tube. A core glass that includes silica, Al, a non-fluorescent rare-earth ion, Ge, Er, and Tm is then deposited in the tube. The non-fluorescent rare-earth ion may be La and the core may further include F. The tube is then collapsed to form a preform. Finally, the preform is drawn to yield optical fiber. The core glass may be substantially homogeneous. The core may include at least two regions, wherein one region contains a substantially different Er to Tm ratio than the other region. Said regions may be in an annular arrangement. The core of such a waveguide may be made with multiple MCVD passes, multiple sol-gel passes or with multiple soot deposition, solution doping, and consolidation passes.
