Halo-tellurite glass fiber with low OH content for 2-5µm mid-infrared nonlinear applications

We report the fabrication of new dehydrated halo-tellurite glass fibers with low OH content (1ppm in weight) and low OH-induced attenuation of 10dB/m in 3-4 µm region. It shows halo-tellurite glass fibers a promising candidate for nonlinear applications in 2-5 µm region.
