technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of 2 μm band laser glass, in particular to a method for improving the 2 μm band fluorescence emission of rare earth ion-doped germanate glass. Background technique [0002] The 2μm band laser is located in the safe wavelength range of human eyes and is in the low loss window of atmospheric light transmission, including the water absorption peak near 1940nm. It has important application value in many fields such as lidar, laser detection, laser medical treatment and environmental monitoring. In addition, the 2μm band laser is also an ideal pump source for the mid-infrared laser (3-5μm). At present, 2μm band fiber laser has become one of the hot spots in the field of laser technology research [0003] The rare earth ions that produce luminescence in the 2μm band mainly include Tm 3+ and Ho 3+ . In 1988, D.C.Hanna of the University of Southampton in the United Kingdom prepared a Tm-doped 3+ Quartz glass single-mode ...
