Temperature-Dependent Study on L-band EDFA Characteristics Pumped at 980 nm and 1480 nm in Phosphorus and Aluminum-rich Erbium-Doped Silica Fibers
JLT 2022


Description:
The excel file contains all experimental data used for generating Fig.1, Fig.3, Fig.4 and Fig.5

The figures are as follows:

Fig. 1.  Absorption and emission cross-sections at -60oC, RT, 80oC for (a) EDF1/P and (b) EDF2/Al (the insets show the TDσ at 1480nm); (c) TDσe coefficients in the signal band (the inset shows the temperature-dependent lifetime) for EDF1/P and EDF2/Al; Emission and ESA cross-sections at -60oC, RT, 80oC for (d) EDF1/P and (e) EDF2/Al. (The arrow direction indicates the direction of temperature increases.)

Fig. 3.  (a) Multi-channel gain and NF spectra at RT and (b) TDG coefficient spectra for 30m of EDF1/P and 20m of EDF2/Al equally pumped at 1480nm and 980nm, respectively.

Fig. 4.  (a) Multi-channel gain and NF spectra at RT and (b) -60oC for 30m of EDF1/P, 20m of EDF2/Al, and hybrid EDF comprising 7.5m of EDF2/Al and 15m of EDF1/P pumped at 980nm with 620/145mW FW/BW pump powers; (c) TDG coefficient spectra for the 3 EDFs pumped at 980nm using unequal (solid line) and equal (dashed line) FW/BW pumps (the inset indicates the TDG at 1615nm for the hybrid EDF).

Fig. 5.  Single-channel gain and NF spectra at RT for 30m of EDF1/P, 20m of EDF2/Al, and hybrid EDF comprising 7.5m of EDF2/Al and 15m of EDF1/P pumped at 980nm with 620/145mW FW/BW pump powers (the inset indicates the gain and NF at -60oC).
