    摘要: The optical fiber is doped at the core thereof with Tm ions and Nd ions. When light at a wavelength in a 800-nm band for exciting the Nd ions, is incident upon the optical fiber through an incident portion thereof, the Nd ions emit light at a wavelength in the vicinity of 1,012 .mu.m. Through three excitations by absorption of light emitted from the Nd ions and/or energy transfer from the Nd ions, the Tm ions experience three excitation transitions and reach a third high energy level through first and second high energy levels. Thereafter, the Tm ions experience a radiative transition from the third high energy level, thereby to emit blue light at a wavelength of 480 nm.

    摘要: A first pumping beam at a wavelength of 1210 nm emitted from a first pumping source is focused by a first lens system on an optical fiber. A second pumping beam at a wavelength of 650 nm emitted from a second pumping source passes through a coupler and a second lens system and arrives at the optical fiber to be incident thereon. Tm ions with which a core portion of the optical fiber is doped sequentially experience a ground-state level absorption transition upon absorption of the first pumping beam, an excited-state level absorption transition to an upper laser level upon absorption of the second pumping beam, and a radiative transition from the upper laser level to a ground-state level, thereby emitting light at a wavelength of 460 to 500 nm. The light at a wavelength of 460 to 500 nm emitted from the Tm ions is resonated by a resonator consisting of an incident mirror and an emitting mirror and outputted as a laser beam.

    摘要: The effective rate of deactivation from the terminal state to the ground state of a rare earth ion doped optical material in a four-level amplifying or lasing scheme may be increased greatly by doping the optical material with two rare earth ions, an activator and a deactivator. Energy transfer occurs between the terminal state in the activator ion and the deactivator ion. The transition from the deactivator to the ground state occurs via phonon emission. By increasing the deactivation rate, the efficiency of the laser and the amplifier is increased.
