| Abstract: | A comprehensive review of the work done by our group, during the last few years, on diode-pumped cw operating bulk Er : Yb phosphate glass is presented. The high performance of this laser in terms of output power, laser slope efficiency, single longitudinal and transverse mode operation, laser tunability and frequency stability, amplitude noise, and active mode-locking operation, are considered. The combination of this high performance and potential low cost makes these laser devices attractive for a variety of applications including spectroscopy, metrology, optical radars, optical communications, and all optical switching.Prof. F.
