Description:
The excel file contains all experimental data used for generating Fig.2 to Fig.5

The figures are as follows:

Fig. 2 (a)  The gain and NF spectra of the BDFA at RT and +60, -20, -40 oC in the single pass configuration (signal power = -23 dBm, pump power = 790 mW)

Fig. 2 (b)  The gain and NF spectra of the BDFA at RT and +60, -20, -40 oC in the double pass configuration (signal power = -23 dBm, pump power = 790 mW)

Fig. 3  Temperature dependent gain and NF at 1340 nm of the double pass BDFA (signal power = -23 dBm, pump power = 790 mW)

Fig. 4  Temperature-dependent-gain coefficient from 1300 to 1360 nm of the double pass BDFA (signal power = -23 dBm, pump power = 790 mW, temperature range = -20 to +60 oC)

Fig. 5 The gain and NF variation with pump power of the double pass BDFA at RT and +60, -40 oC, where the inset shows the corresponding gain coefficient (dB/mW) at -40 oC (signal power = -23 dBm, pump power = 790 mW)
