Abstract

Laser emission cross-sections of the 1077 nm and 1370 nm emissions of Nd3+ in 3Ga2S3 (0.85)La2S30.15Nd2S3 (GLS) and 3Al2S3 (0.872)La2S30.128Nd2S3 (ALS) were obtained from the calculated matrix elements of Nd3+ in the glasses, experimentally measured intensity parameters, emission half-widths and lifetimes. The laser threshold power for side pumping in the chalcogenide glasses is much lower than for ED-2 glass.
