We will create a new composite glass providing strong fluorescence which fully exploits the high transmission of glass in the mid-infrared. When combined with emerging rare earth ion transitions and precise excitation processes, this project will help solve an important problem in optics; that the overall efficiency and power produced from deep mid-infrared light sources is not sufficient for all industries. The primary outcome will be a series of robust fibre-based gain modules suitable for high power and very short optical pulses in the mid-infrared. These light sources will beneficially impact medicine, defence, sensing and manufacturing providing excellent opportunities for increasing Australian productivity and global competitiveness.

我们将创建一个新的复合玻璃，提供强烈的荧光，该荧光充分利用中红外的高玻璃传输。当与新兴的稀土离子过渡和精确的激发过程结合使用时，该项目将有助于解决光学方面的重要问题。深层中红外光源产生的总体效率和功率对于所有行业都不足。主要结果将是一系列适用于高功率的基于纤维的强大增益模块，并且中红外的光脉冲非常短。这些光源将对医学，防御，感应和制造有益地影响提高澳大利亚生产力和全球竞争力的绝佳机会。
