This paper reports on the fabrication and characterization of a newly erbium-doped single-mode tellurite glass-fibre applicable for 1.5-μm optical amplifiers. A very broad erbium amplified spontaneous emission in the range 1450-1650 nm from erbium-doped single-mode tclluritc glass-fibre is obtained upon excitation of a 980-nm laser diode. The effects of the length of glass-fibre and the pumping power of laser diode on the amplified spontaneous emission are discussed.The result indicates that the tellurite glass-fibre is a promising candidate for designing fibre-optic amplifiers and lasers.
