Optimal pumping of erbium-doped-fibre optical amplifiers

Optimal pumping of erbium-doped-fibre optical amplifiers
Optimal pumping of erbium-doped-fibre optical amplifiers
By choosing pump wavelengths which avoid excited-state absorption, efficient, high-gain, erbium-doped fibre amplifiers are possible. Practical pump wavelengths of 532nm and 980nm are identified as optimal, the latter giving a gain as high as 2.2dB/mW of pump.

Abstract

By choosing pump wavelengths which avoid excited-state absorption, efficient, high-gain, erbium-doped fibre amplifiers are possible. Practical pump wavelengths of 532nm and 980nm are identified as optimal, the latter giving a gain as high as 2.2dB/mW of pump.
