چکیده
This paper represents the study of light sources for optical communication through the optical fiber. For this purpose, the ideal light source characteristics have been studied. According to the study, the semiconductor LASER diodes are preferable sources over LEDs. From the family of LASER diodes, Distributed Feedback (DFB) lasers are considered as source. They have low threshold current and high efficiency as well as single wavelength characteristics. Quantum well DFB lasers are of main interest in this research letter.

Investigation intensity response of distributed-feedback fiber laser to external acoustic excitation
The intensity response of distributed-feedback (DFB) fiber laser to external acoustic excitation has been investigated. On that basis, an intensity modulated sensing system based on DFB fiber laser has been constructed. Acoustic pressure sensitivity of the intensity-type sensor at frequencies ranging from 800 Hz to 9 kHz has been obtained by experiments for the first time to the authors’ knowle...
متن کاملResonant pumped erbium-doped waveguide lasers using distributed Bragg reflector cavities.
This Letter reports on an optical pumping scheme, termed resonant pumping, for an erbium-doped distributed feedback (DFB) waveguide laser. The scheme uses two mirrors on either side of the DFB laser, forming a pump cavity that recirculates the unabsorbed pump light. Symmetric distributed Bragg reflectors are used as the mirrors and are designed by matching the external and internal quality fact...
متن کاملUltra-stable Visible Laser Source Based on Comb-injection Locked Dfb for Gauge Block Measurement
− We demonstrate an ultra-stable visible laser source that can be generated from injection locked infrared DFB based on optical comb. The optical comb was used as injection source and locked to an acetylene stabilization laser as a reference source of optical communication region. The DFB laser was selectively injection locked from only one among the comb mode with 25 GHz spacing. The ultra-sta...

Over the last three decades extensive research has been carried out towards the design and development of fibre optic hydrophones. The inherent advantages of fibre optic sensing technology, like high sensitivity, immunity to electromagnetic interference, intrinsic safety to water leakage, remote measurement capability etc. makes it an ideal choice for underwater acoustic sensing[1, 2]. The init...
متن کاملDetailed study of four-wave mixing in Raman DFB fiber lasers.
We both experimentally and numerically studied the ultra-compact wavelength conversion by using the four-wave mixing (FWM) process in Raman distributed-feedback (R-DFB) fiber lasers. The R-DFB fiber laser is formed in a 30 cm-long commercially available Ge/Si standard optical fiber. The internal generated R-DFB signal acts as the pump wave for the FWM process and is in the normal dispersion ran...
