Abstract :
The elaboration of Yb3+-doped LiNbO3:Sc3+ and LiNbO3:Mg2+ single crystal fibers by the laser heated pedestal growth technique is reported. The ytterbium emission and absorption cross-sections are given. We show that it is possible to obtain the coincidence between the wavelength of phase-matching for second harmonic generation and the wavelength of laser emission by varying the host composition, in order to achieve a self-doubling laser material.
