Temperature-dependent gain and noise in fiber Raman amplifiers.
An experimental investigation of the temperature dependence of the gain and noise performance of a silica-fiber Raman amplifier is described. A decrease in the Raman scattering cross section in a fiber amplifier cooled from a temperature of 300 K to 77 K was measured and found to be in agreement with theoretical values. No difference between the Raman gain coefficients at these two temperatures...
متن کاملStatistics of polarization-dependent gain in fiber-based Raman amplifiers.
We develop an analytic model for finding the statistics of polarization-dependent gain (PDG) in fiber-based Raman amplifiers. We use it to find an analytic form for the probability distribution of PDG and study how the mean PDG and the variance of PDG fluctuations depend on the PMD parameter. We show that mean PDG as well as PDG fluctuations are reduced by approximately a factor of 30 in the ca...
متن کاملAn Approach to Flatten the Gain of Fiber Raman Amplifiers with Multi-Pumping
The effects of the pumping wavelength and their power on the gain flattening of a fiber Raman amplifier (FRA) are investigated. The multi-wavelength pumping scheme is utilized to achieve gain flatness in FRA. It is proposed that gain flatness becomes better with increase in number of pumping wavelengths applied. We have achieved flat gain with 0.27 dB fluctuation in a spectral range of 1475-160...
متن کاملOptimal Design of Flat-Gain Wide-Band Fiber Raman Amplifiers
We present a novel method for desiging multiwavelength pumped fiber Raman amplifiers with optimal gain-flatness and gain-bandwidth performance. We show that by solving the inverse amplifier design problem, relative gain flatness well below 1% can be achieved over bandwidths of up to 12 THz without any gain equalization devices. This constitutes a substantial improvement in gain flatness compare...
متن کاملEffect of gain dispersion and stimulated Raman scattering on soliton amplification in fiber amplifiers.
Amplification of ultrashort solitons in fiber amplifiers is discussed by considering a general model that includes gain saturation, gain dispersion, and intrapulse stimulated Raman scattering. The numerical results show that an interplay between gain dispersion and intrapulse Raman scattering can lead to novel temporal and spectral features. Under high-gain conditions the input pulse is found t...
