Sahu, University of Southampton This dataset supports the publication: Ziwei Zhai and Jayanta K. Sahu. (2024) High-gain ultra-wideband bismuth-doped fiber amplifier operating in the O+E+S band OL 2024 Description: The excel file contains all experimental data used for generating Fig.1, Fig.2, Fig.4, and Fig.5 The figures are as follows: Fig. 1. Gaussian peaks fittings to the normalized absorption curve of (a) BPSF-1 and (b) BPSF-2. The peak amplitude of each band is presented. Fig. 2. Gaussian peaks fittings to the normalized luminescence curve measured under the 1310 nm excitation of (a) BPSF-1 and (b) BPSF-2. The peak amplitude of each band is presented. Fig. 4. (a) Gain and NF spectra from 1330-1480 nm for different input signal powers of 117 m of BPSF-1 with a total pump power of 600 mW. (b) The signal and noise spectra measured from 117 m of BPSF-1 for a -23 dBm input signal, from which the in-band OSNR was derive. (c) Gain and NF spectra from 1330-1480 nm for different input signal powers of 195 m of BPSF-2 with a total pump power of 1004 mW. Fig. 5. Gain, NF, and PCE variations with the total pump power for a -10 dBm input signal at 1360 and 1420 nm.
