摘 要:We study the photodarkening effect in a double clad ytterbium-doped silica fiber fabricated by modified chemical vapor deposition and solution doping.A common measurement technology for photodarkening is used to study the photodarkening-induced absorption *** present a fast and simple method to observe the PD effect by measurement of the fluorescence *** method proposed here can be used to observe the influence for a short time,and thus reduces the requirements of system stability and heat *** is obtained that under the condition of 45.5%Yb ion inversion level,photodarkening-induced excessive loss at an equilibrium state is above 4.5 dB/m and florescence intensity degradation is above 10%after 500 min pumping at 1041 nm for the home-made normal Yb/Al co-doped silica fiber.
