We investigate tunability of fiber lasers in ytterbium-doped Y2O3 nanoparticle fibers. A net emission cross section constructed from the spectroscopic measurements reveals the feasibility of tunable laser operation in the fiber. Broad tuning ranges of 1040-1108 nm and 1025-1090 nm are demonstrated i...
