A tunable and low-threshold thulium (Tm)-doped fiber (TDF) laser is demonstrated using a new silica-based nanoengineered TDF in a linear configuration, in conjunction with 1552-nm pumping. The TDF used in these experiments had a Tm-doped nanoengineering yttrium-alumina-silica glass core with a diame...
