THE INFRARED OPTICAL DIARIES

To achieve a much better comprehension of the HPCVD deposition and doping method, we performed synchrotron micro-X-ray fluorescence (XRF) mapping experiments to quantitatively map the distribution of transition steel dopants in HPCVD created Fe2+:ZnSe optical fibers. Micro-XRF can be a valuable approach due to its higher sensitivity and sub-micron
