The authors demonstrate a 1.5 mu m wavelength microfiber laser formed by tightening a doped microfiber into a knot in air. The 2-mm-diameter knot, assembled using a 3.8-mu m-diameter microfiber that is directly drawn from Er:Yb-doped phosphate glass, serves as both active medium and resonating cavity for lasing. Single-longitudinal-mode laser with threshold of about 5 mW and output power higher than 8 mu W is obtained. Their initial results suggest a simple approach to highly compact lasers based on doped microscale optical fibers. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
