Abstract

We show experimental performance comparison of different equalization methods in erbium‐doped optical amplifiers based on silica and ZBLAN host materials. Different configurations are analyzed, including the analysis of hybrid silica/ZBLAN configurations, exploring gain, bandwidth, and noise figure performance. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dynamic gain fluctuations in a ring-laser gainclamped EDFA submitted to WDM traffic fluctuations are experimentally investigated. We measured the effect of relaxation oscillations that build up with laser action upon the BER on a 10-Gb/s optical transmission. Power penalties up to 1 dB are observed

An efficient gain-flattened C-band Erbium-doped fibre amplifier is demonstrated using a double-pass configuration with an IsoGain^TM^ Erbium-doped fibre (EDF). The amplifier utilizes a double-propagation of signal provided by an optical circulator at the output end of the EDF to obtain an improved f

## Abstract A new design of an all‐optical gain‐clamped erbium‐doped fiber amplifier is demonstrated. The amplifier is based on the conventional ring cavity, where the gain is clamped at 21.84 dB via optical feedback using a single fiber Bragg grating for an input signal power as high as −8 dBm. ©

We demonstrate a dual-stage gain-clamped erbium-doped fiber amplifier. The first-stage amplifier consists of a short length of erbium-doped fiber to produce low noise figures. The second-stage is constructed from a counter-propagating ring-laser, in which the signals and the lasing wavelength propag
