Abstract
Transparent oxyfluoride glass-ceramic fibers containing Nd3+doped- LaF3 nano-crystals were drawn using single crucible method and crystallized before cladding deposition. Optical fibers with Nd-NaGdF4 were also prepared by double crucible method with AR glass cladding. The fibers were characterized from a structural and optical point of view.
