Abstract

LiNbO₃ has excellent electro-optic, acousto-optic and nonlinear optical properties. In recent years, Rare-earth- doped LiNbO₃ is attractive since it allows a monolithic integration by combining amplifiers and lasers with modulators, filters, switches, etc., on the same chip. Acquiring the characteristics of the rare-earth-doped LiNbO₃ laser is the prerequisite of optimization and monolithic integration. This paper will present the theoretical modeling of Er-doped LiNbO₃ optical laser. The theoretical model is based on laser rate equations for an arbitrary rare-earth- doped laser host with multiple energy levels.
