Abstract :
In this paper we present some result on sol–gel derived silica–hafnia systems. In particular we focus on fabrication, morphological and spectroscopic assessment of Er3+-activated thin films. Two examples of silica–hafnia-derived waveguiding glass ceramics, prepared by top–down and bottom–up techniques are reported, and the main optical properties are discussed. Finally, some properties of activated microspherical resonators, having a silica core, obtained by melting the end of a telecom fiber, coated with an Er3+-doped 70SiO2–30HfO2 film, are presented.
