Abstract
Trivalent rare earth and transition metal ions in insulating materials have been the topic of extensive investigations over the years due to their application as active ions in solid-state lasers. In lithium niobate (LiNbO3) with its favorable nonlinear and electro-optical properties, Er ions and other rare earth ions have been utilized in integrated optical lasers and optical amplifiers.
