Blue and red laser action in Nd3+:Pr3+ co-doped fluorozirconate glass

Abstract
Lasing has been observed in the blue (488 nm) and red (635 nm, 717 nm) bands in a new Nd3+:Pr3+ co‐doped fluorozirconate (ZBLANP) glass fiber with 796 nm pump. An upconversion and resonant energy transfer mechanism is proposed to explain the visible transitions.
