Description/Abstract

Optical amplification based on stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in optical fibres offers the potential to generate gain at any arbitrary wavelength with an appropriate pump source. This has proved a very effective and successful way of providing gain at those wavelengths not directly available with rare-earth doped fibres. However most of this success has been achieved using CW pump sources, but in recent years there has been renewed interest in the pulsed pumping of Raman amplifiers.
