摘要:
An optically active device comprising an optical fiber, a light source and an optical device is disclosed. The optical fiber comprises a core made of an optical functioning glass doped with Pr.sup.3+ as an active ion and transmits light at a first wavelength. The light source generates excitation light at a second wavelength shorter than the first wavelength. The optical device directs the excitation light from the light source into the optical fiber. Then, Pr.sup.3+ in the core of the optical fiber is stimulated to emit light at the second wavelength. As a result, an optical function such as optical amplification can be effected at the second wavelength.

There is provided a method of producing a protective metal coated or covered superconducting ceramic wire by applying a finely pulverized protective metal-dispersed polymeric resin onto the surface of a glass wire in amorphous state of metal oxides capable of being converted into superconductive ceramic, heating the wire to remove the polymeric resin therefrom to obtain the wire having a metal powder coating thereon, and heat-treating the wire to become superconductive. The coating is easily conducted without damaging the excellent productivity of the so-called melt-quenching and preform wire-drawing process for producing a superconducting ceramic wire.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an optical functioning glass containing Nd.sup.+3 as an active ion which amplifies an input light, and at least one other optical active ion different from Nd.sup.+3 which absorbs light at and near 1 .mu.m. The present invention also relates to an optical functioning glass containing Nd.sup.+3 as an active ion which amplifies the input light, and at least one other optical active ion different from Nd.sup.+3 functioning as a promoter. An efficiency of the stimulated emission of Nd.sup.3+ caused by signal light propagated through the optical functioning glass is enhanced and a gain of the light amplification at 1.3 .mu.m is increased.

An optically active device comprising an optical fiber, a light source and a coupler is disclosed. The optical fiber has a core made of a silicate glass containing Rb and/or Cs oxide. The core is doped with Nd.sup.3+ as an active ion and transmits light at 1.3 .mu.m band. The light source generates excitation light at 0.8 .mu.m. The coupler directs the excitation light from the light source into the core of the optical fiber. A signal light or a spontaneous light at 1.3 .mu.m band which is transmitted in the core stimulates Nd.sup.3+ to emit light at 1.3 .mu.m band. As a result an optical function such as optical amplification can be effected at 1.3 .mu.m band.
