Abstract: Boron containing glasses are sensitive to radiation in the band 225-275 nm and therefore, B.sub.2 O.sub.3 glasses are particularly adapted to receive refractive index modulation, e.g., to make reflection gratings. Glasses containing SiO.sub.2 and B.sub.2 O.sub.3 are particularly suitable when the grating is to be localized in the cladding of a fibre. Glasses containing SiO.sub.2, GeO.sub.2 and B.sub.2 O.sub.3 are suitable when the grating is in the path region of a waveguide, e.g., in the core of a fibre.

Abstract: The specification describes fiber laser devices with cores containing aluminum in which the composition of the core is modified to minimize the core .DELTA., thereby allowing a larger core diameter, and a reduction in the fiber laser length by a factor equal to the square of the diameter difference. This result is achieved by compensation doping the core with phosphorus to offset the index-modifying contribution of aluminum.

Abstract: Rare earth element doped silica glass according to the invention is prepared by doping silica-based glass co-doped with a rare earth element and aluminum additionally with fluorine and has excellent physical properties including remarkable light emission characteristics and an excellent capability of being fused with other silica-based glass. Such doped silica glass provides high amplification gains and a wide wavelength bandwidth and therefore can be used as a material for manufacturing miniaturized optical devices. Particularly, since the manufacturing process adapted to produce rare earth element doped silica glass according to the invention does not involve crystallization that normally characterizes the type of doped silica glass under consideration, the obtained doped silica glass is transparent and totally free from air bubbles. As a method for manufacturing rare earth doped silica glass according to the invention combines means for producing articles made of porous glass and a solution impregnation method, it provides easy and effective means for manufacturing rare earth doped silica glass which is co-doped with both a rare earth element and aluminum and highly transparent and therefore can be used as a suitable material for active optical devices.
