β¦ Synopsis
This paper reports about recent advances in optical nanomaterials and planar microcavities. Bottom-up fabrication, optical and spectroscopic assessment of Er 3+ -activated SiO 2 -HfO 2 waveguide glass ceramic are presented. Concerning confined structures, the rf sputtering based fabrication of an Er 3+ -activated microcavity with a quality factor of 171 using oxide-based dielectric materials is demonstrated.
