✦ Synopsis


A new double pass long wavelength band erbium-doped ÿber ampliÿer with enhanced noise ÿgure characteristics is demonstrated. The noise ÿgure is improved by about 2:6 dB with the incorporation of broadband conventional-band ÿber Bragg grating (FBG) in between the two segments of erbium-doped ÿber. By incorporating both the pre-ampliÿer and the FBG, the noise ÿgure is further improved, which varies from 4.0 to 5:0 dB in the at gain region from 1570 to 1600 nm. The gain varies from 32.0 to 33:4 dB within this region. The new ampliÿer with high gain and low noise ÿgure can be useful as an inline ampliÿer in a wavelength division multiplexing transmission system.

The double-pass erbium-doped zirconia fiber amplifier (EDZFA) is proposed and demonstrated to provide a wide-band amplification as well as flat-gain operation in both the C-and L-band regions using only a single-gain medium. The proposed amplifier utilizes an erbium-doped zirconia fiber (EDZF) with
