Abstract
There has been a widespread interest in research and development of solid-state blue light sources, owing to their potential applications in optical data storage, undersea communications and displays. In this work we report on the generation of third-harmonic 120 µW average power light at 440 nm in bulk GeO2-SiO2 and Er3+-doped GeO2-SiO2 glasses pumped by a Nd:YAG at 1.319 µm.
