Abstract
Measurements of 30 μm thick layers showed high Yb absorption of 500 dB/m at 980 nm. The fluorescence lifetime was close to 1 ms and the propagation loss was less than 20 dB/m at 633 nm, currently limited by the measurement system. The results show that a potential material for high power applications has been achieved.
