We demonstrate a record gain of 11.4-dB for 300-nm broadband single-mode Cr-doped crystalline core fibers (SMCDCCFs) employing a novel growth of smaller core. The gain-per-unit-length efficiency of the SMCDCCF is 38-dB/m, which is much higher than current Er and Bi-doped fibers of 0.3 dB/m. The record gain achieved is mainly due to constantly maintain conical molten-zone shape in growth process to fabricate a smaller core of 15-µm and a longer fiber length of 30-cm.
