The polarization-dependent absorption and emission spectra of the 4113/2-4115/2 transition (A - 1.5 pm) in single crystal bulk Er:LiNbOs have been measured. Low-temperature (10 K) measurements of the Stark split energy levels of these two manifolds indicate at least two Er3+ sites. McCumber theory is applied to determine the Er:LiNb03 absorption and emission cross sections. These values are used to calculate the gain charac- teristics of Er:LiNbOs channel waveguides. Calculations indicate that a gain of 10 dB is achievable in a waveguide of several centimeters using -20-mW pump power.
