Intensity noise suppression in fibre DFB laser using gain saturated SOA

Intensity noise suppression in fibre DFB laser using gain saturated SOA
Intensity noise suppression in fibre DFB laser using gain saturated SOA
Experimental results of a simple, all-optical technique to reduce low-frequency intensity noise in an Er-Yb codoped fibre distributed feedback (DFB) laser are reported. This method utilises the gain dynamics of a saturated semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) to produce a reduction of 30dB in the relaxation oscillation noise component of the fibre laser.

Abstract

Experimental results of a simple, all-optical technique to reduce low-frequency intensity noise in an Er-Yb codoped fibre distributed feedback (DFB) laser are reported. This method utilises the gain dynamics of a saturated semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) to produce a reduction of 30dB in the relaxation oscillation noise component of the fibre laser.
