Amplification at 1.06 μm using a Nd : glass thin-film waveguide

Abstract
Nd‐doped glass (3.5 wt% Nd2O3) is sputtered on Corning No. 7059 glass to make an active thin‐film waveguide. The thin film is pumped with a Xe flash tube, and the amplification of 1.06‐μm laser light that propagates in the thin film is observed.
