Abstract
Experimental results on the realization and characterization of microspherical lasers at 1.56 micrometers with Er-doped ZBLAN glasses are presented. The lasers are excited through an evanescent wave coupling. Thresholds of 600 (mu) W have been obtained. Multimode operation has been observed with linewidths of the order of 250 KHz.
