All Optical Parametric Frequency Conversion Based on Cross Gain Modulation on a Reflective Semiconductor Optical Amplifier
This paper reports a detailed experimental study of the wavelength conversion dynamics using cross-gain modulation in reflective semiconductor optical amplifiers. The effect of pump and probe powers on the operating performance in terms of signal to noise ratio was experimentally investigating. The variation of others performance indicators such as extinction ratio, timing jitter and eye openin...
متن کاملMethod for measuring the Raman gain tensor in optical fibers
We present a technique to measure the tensor components of the Raman gain spectrum in a short piece of optical fiber. Using this approach, we obtain results for the frequency dependence of the Raman gain tensor in a silica-based fiber for Raman shifts from less than 1 to over 15 THz. We compare these data with measurements of spontaneous Raman scattering in bulk silica and find good agreement f...
متن کامل90-nm Wideband Optical Amplifier Including an Semiconductor Optical Amplifier and a DCF-based Raman Fiber Amplifier with Gain Clamping and Dispersion Compensation
A 90-nm wideband (1500-1590nm) optical amplifier consisting of a dispersion-compensated-fiber-based Raman fiber amplifier and a semiconductor optical amplifier with gain clamping and dispersion compensation is demonstrated for wide bandwidth amplification with gain flatness as well as dispersion compensation. 10Gb/s DWDM transmission over 100km conventional single-mode fiber link with low biter...
متن کاملAmplifier Structure for High Gain and Fast Settling Applications
High gain amplifiers with fast settling times are needed for high-speed data converter applications. A cascaded amplifier architecture is discussed that can make use of several architecturally identical amplifies to achieve the desired gain. Only one of the amplifiers has a gainbandwidth product requirement that is modestly higher than the rest to keep the overall structure stable in the presen...
متن کاملPolarization dependence of non-linear gain compression factor in semiconductor optical amplifier.
We investigate the power and the polarization dependence of the intraband dynamics in a bulk semiconductor optical amplifier using both a 2.5-ps pump-probe experimental set-up in contra-propagation and a theoretical model. Our model is based on the rate equations and takes into account the polarization dependence of the gain. By comparing experimental and computational results we are able to hi...
