Abstract

Lasing at 381 nm (⁴D_3/2 - ⁴I_9/2) and at 412 nm (²P_3/2 - ⁴I_9/2) has been observed in a Nd³⁺- doped ZBLAN fiber at room temperature with a single pump laser operating in the 580 to 600 nm wavelength region. The output power, excitation spectrum, line width, and temporal behavior of the laser are discussed.
