摘要：
Blue semiconductor laser pumped continuous-wave laser oscillation of a Pr-doped ZrF4-BaF2-LaF3-AlF3-NaF fibre in the red spectral range is reported for the first time. The pump power is provided by a frequency-doubled optically pumped semiconductor laser system. When pumped with 300 mW at a wavelength of 479.7 am, the Pr3+-laser emitted 94 mW of output power at a wavelength of 63 5 nm. Threshold pump power and slope efficiency with respect to the incident pump power were determined to be 49.7 mW and 41.5%, respectively.
