Abstract
Injection locking of an erbium‐doped fiber laser‐amplifier is presented. Inside the locking range, the system oscillates at the wavelength of the injected signal. Outside the locking range, both signal and laser oscillate simultaneously in the cavity. Signal detuning studies show that the locking range increases with higher input signal power. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract Variation of laser signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) in an erbium‐doped fiber‐ring laser system subject to external injection is presented. Laser SNR is found to be dependent not only on the injected power, but also on the amplification characteristic over the entire amplified spontaneous emi
An erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) for S-band signal amplification is designed by using a depressed cladding erbium-doped fiber (DC-EDF). The fiber's characteristics are described in terms of the effects of the fiber spooling diameter on the amplifier's performance. In this experiment, the spool

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
