Er Yb Fiber Amplifier

The pump light is guided within an all silica structure using a fluorinated secondary cladding to create the pump guide boundary without the need for low index.

Er yb fiber amplifier. Unlike other cladding pump or dual clad fibers fibercore s dual clad erbium ytterbium doped fiber f cp1500y was originally designed as a high power communications amplifier fiber. This result is a first step towards sdm transmission including power efficient amplifiers and roadm. Optical properties of er 3 yb 3 co doped phosphate glass system for nir lasers and fiber amplifiers ceramics international volume 44 issue 18 15 december 2018 pages 22467 22472. Demonstrates an yb sensitized er doped fiber tunable mopa source.

The ase from the input part of the fiber is used. Coractive s er yb co doped fibers are particularly attractive due to their highly efficient energy transfer that makes them one of the most efficient er yb doped. Highly er yb co doped phosphosilicate fibers with low optical losses were fabricated by the mcvd method utilizing an all gas phase deposition technique developed in house important characteristics such as photodarkening and photosensitivity of these fibers were thoroughly investigated. Double cladding yb eydf source mopa er.

In er and yb co doped systems yb absorbs most of the pump energy and quickly transfers it to neighboring er and the larger phonon energy in the phosphate glass matrix increases the chance of transition from 4 i 11 2 4 i 13 2 which prevents reverse transfer of energy from er to yb. Er yb fibers ytterbium sensitized erbium co doped fibers are used for operation around 1 5 micron in such applications as eye safe fiber lasers or high power edfa amplifiers. In this letter we propose and realize a novel concept for a high peak power highly efficient fiber amplifier in the 1 55 µm spectral range. Using this approach we demonstrate the amplification of single frequency 160 ns pulses at 1554 nm to a peak power of.

An almost negligible impact of photodarkening induced losses no more than 1 db m was discovered in. A single stage forward pumped 980 nm doped fiber amplifier for l band. The erbium doped fiber amplifier edfa is the most deployed fiber amplifier as its amplification window coincides with the third transmission window of silica based optical fiber. Considering both the signal power and amplification efficiency there is an optimal gain fiber length for amplifier.

It uses a very long low doping level fiber. Er yb codoped phosphate glasses with improved gain characteristics for an efficient 1 55 µm broadband optical amplifiers. The core of a silica fiber is doped with trivalent erbium ions er 3 and can be efficiently pumped with a laser at or near wavelengths of 980 nm and 1480 nm and. The amplifier is based on the simultaneous utilization of er doped yb free and er yb codoped large mode area fibers spliced together.
