Abstract A step-index polymer optical fibre (SI POF) containing rhodamine B in poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) has been fabricated by a perform technique. The rhodamine B content of the doped SI POF is 5ppm-wt. The spectra of the doped SI POF with different fibre lengths were measured. Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) at 609nm of an SI POF in length 40cm has been observed at ambient temperature by end-pumping with a Nd:YAG laser operated at 532nm. The threshold of absorbed pump power for the onset of ASE is about 0.003mJ.
