AN UNBIASED VIEW OF IR OPTICAL

To get a far better idea of the HPCVD deposition and doping system, we performed synchrotron micro-X-ray fluorescence (XRF) mapping experiments to quantitatively map the distribution of transition metallic dopants in HPCVD created Fe2+:ZnSe optical fibers. Micro-XRF is actually a helpful approach as a result of its large sensitivity and sub-micron
