Abstract
We investigated the optical properties of the ErYb(DBM)3MA complexes and the ErYb(DBM)3MA containing polymer. Absorption and photoluminescence spectra confirm that the presence of Yb3+ ions enhances luminescence efficiency of Er3+ ions. The full width at half maximum bandwidth (FWHM) is ∼80 nm wide around 1.53 μm wavelength. We also fabricated ErYb containing polymeric channel waveguides using reactive ion etching technique. As an input pump of 120 mW was used, a ∼1.53 μm spontaneous emission was obtained in a 4-mm-long waveguide.
