Determination of homogeneous linewidth by spectral gain hole-burning in an erbium-doped fiber amplifier with GeO/sub 2/:SiO/sub 2/ core

J.L. Zyskind, E. Desurvire, James W. Sulhoff +1 more

Spectral gain hole-burning was observed at low temperatures in an erbium-doped fiber amplifier with GeO/sub 2/:SiO/sub 2/ core. At the peak wavelength lambda =1.535 mu m, homogeneous linewidths determined from the observed hole widths have a power-law dependence on temperature. At room temperature, the extrapolated homogeneous linewidth is 4 nm and the inhomogeneous linewidth is 8 nm.>

Spectral gain hole-burning at 1.53 mu m in erbium-doped fiber amplifiers

E. Desurvire, J.L. Zyskind, J.R. Simpson

Spectral gain hole-burning at lambda /sub 0/=1.53 mu m was observed in an erbium-doped fiber amplifier at temperatures between 4.2 and 77 K. The hole width was found to broaden with temperature for T>or=20 K according to a T/sup 1.73/ law. From the data, the room-temperature homogeneous linewidth associated with the 1.531- mu m transition in the /sup 4/I/sub 13/2/-/sup 4/I/sub 15/2/ laser system was determined to be Delta lambda /sub h/=11.5 nm for aluminosilicate fibers.>

Spectral Gain Hole-Burning in an Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifier with GeO2:SiO2 Core

The gain saturation characteristics of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, which are of importance for applications in optical fiber communications, will depend strongly on the relative importance of homogeneous and inhomogeneous saturation. We have recently reported low temperature spectral hole burning measurements in an erbium-doped fiber with an alumino-silicate core1. From these measurements the homogeneous linewidth was determined to be 11.5 nm. This is consistent with the homogeneous gain saturation observed for alumino-silicate fibers.2 For erbium-doped fibers with GeO2:SiO2 cores, on the other hand, inhomogeneous saturation effects have been reported.3The gain saturation characteristics of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, which are of importance for applications in optical fiber communications, will depend strongly on the relative importance of homogeneous and inhomogeneous saturation.
