We have proposed a novel configuration of erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) which realizes both a flat spectral gain and high output power for analog transmission. This EDFA uses hybrid EDF which consists of serially cascaded EDFs with different glass compositions, based on the fact that EDFs with
Two pairs of fiber-optic links are designed, built, and tested using directly modulated semiconductor laser diodes operating at a 1.3 m waยจelength. Delays of 5 s are demonstrated, with a spurious free dynamic range of up to 115 dB r Hz 2 r 3 , a wide-frequency bandwidth of up to 6 GHz, and a pulse r
## Abstract Gain, gain saturation, optical signalโtoโnoise ratio (OSNR), and pump power conversion efficiency (PCE) of coโ and counterโpumped Raman fiber amplifiers (RFAs) are investigated and compared experimentally in this paper. Results show that obvious OSNR improvement can be achieved with coโ
