Optoelectron. 143, 293 (1996). 1 INTRODUCTION Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers are typically constructed by connecting fibers (erbiumdoped as well as transmission fiber) with other components necessary for the amplifier's operation. , pump lasers). Such bulk components usually have fiber pigtails to make it easier to integrate them in a fiber-based system by fusion splicing the fibers together.

Fabrication and use of halide glass fiber is substantially more difficult than silica with issues of purification, fiber drawing, and fiber reliability. Silica is inherently more stable as a glass than halides, as it is less likely to crystallize, and it has a broad temperature range where its viscosity is suitable for drawing into fiber. For example ZBLAN, a suitable ZrF4 based glass, may be drawn into fiber over a temperature range of only 30 degrees. , which are liquids at room temperature. Control of the partial pressure of oxygen during high temperature processing also diminishes the incorporation of the key optical absorbing species of transition metals (Cu2+, Ni2+, Fe2+) and OH.
