摘要

By combining the sol--gel method and the spin-coating technique, silica-on-silicon Er-doped glass optical planar waveguides were fabricated. The active guiding layer consisted of SiO_2--TiO_2--Er_2O_3--Yb_2O_3--Al_2O_3 and its composition was optimized by measuring the fluorescence lifetime τ of the 4~I_l3/2 metastable level of Er~3- ions. The Er concentration was chosen as the quenching concentration, which was found to be l.4 x l0~20 ions/cm~3. The Yb concentration was found to have little influence on τ, whereas a concentration of l.5 x l0~21 ions/cm~3 of AlO_3/2 was found to be enough to maximize τ. The 7laluminum concentration barely influenced the flatness of the amplified spontaneous emission spectrum. Strip-loaded waveguides were designed by reactive ion etching of the cladding layer and their performance as candidates for integrated optical amplifiers was assessed. Propagation losses of 0.7 dB/cm and loss reduction of 2.7 dB (for a 5.7 cm long waveguide) were measured.
