This thesis presents research made on 2.7 um wavelength emitting erbium doped ZBLAN lasers as a source of mid-infrared light. Specifically, the goal of this research is to closely study the erbium energy level mechanisms that give rise to gain at 2.7m, in order to model and design an efficient compact laser source with low power requirements. To achieve these goals, a fluorescent source is built to compare resulting spectra at low power with the pumping wavelengths of 980 nm and 790 nm, as well as provide experimental basis for modeling. Subsequently, a free space pumped laser design is tested, however due to the ZBLAN fiber design leading to high losses, the lasing threshold could not be reached. Consequently, a new fiber design is propose...
