摘要：

A tellurite optical fiber doped with Er3+ and Ce3+ ions was designed and fabricated with the aim of assessing its suitability as laser and optical amplifier operating at 1550 nm, compatible with silica fiber standard dimensions. High-quality optical fibers, with an attenuation loss of 1.0 dB/m at 1320 nm, were obtained featuring a 6-mu m diameter core. A fiber laser emitting at 1550 nm upon pumping at 976 nm and a fiber amplifier characterized by signal amplification of 8 dB for a length of 10 cm were demonstrated.
