Transition-metal-ions doped solid-state gain media are eminently suitable for generating broadband emissions. Ti3+: sapphire and Cr4+: YAG crystals are 2 successful examples that are now widely used. Glass-clad Ti3+: sapphire and Cr4+: YAG crystal fibers have shown superior performance for broadly tunable lasers in the near infrared wavelength ranges. The tunable Ti3+: sapphire crystal fiber lasers are efficient, and have demostrated the lowest threshold over a 180 nm tuning range. The Cr4+: YAG crystal fiber laser shows a tuning range of 170 nm, limited by the excited state absorption. To celebrate the 60th anniversary since laser invention, a brief historical review and the latest developments of the Ti3+: sapphire and Cr4+: YAG crystal fiber lasers are discussed in the manuscript. The tunable Ti3+: sapphire crystal fiber laser's wavelength sweeping speed is envisioned, and the optical properties are compared with that of the Cr4+: YAG crystal fiber. With well-developed crystalline cores and clads for broadly tunable lasers, it is expected that novel applications, such as ultra-broadband optical fiber communications and cellular-resolution optical coherence tomography, could be evolved to meet the high data rate and high image resolution needs in future. ? 2020, Science Press.
