Abstract
Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (YAG) is a promising material for solid state fiber lasers. The cladding surrounding the YAG core must have a tightly controlled refractive index, high thermal conductivity, and be fully dense. Ca3Ga2Ge3O12 (CGG) is a potential cladding material that meets these criteria, and has a low melting-temperature, allowing for unique processing methods. This presentation will discuss application of a dense CGG cladding onto a YAG fiber core using a Laser Heated Pedestal Growth (LHPG) apparatus. In-situ melt/solidification of the CGG in the LHPG will be shown, as well as characterization of cladded fibers via SEM, EDS, and TEM.
