High power L-band erbium-doped fiber laser pumped by a C-band superfluorescent source

Abstract: Abstract:The C-band is demonstrated to be suitable for pumping L-band erbium-doped fiber laser (EDFL) with a broad pumping band. A high power C-band superfluorescent fiber source (SFS) peaked at 1545 nm with output power of 1.86 W is constructed and utilized as pump source for L-band EDFL. Based on this, an all single-mode-fiber L-band EDFL emitting at 1591.9 nm with 1.19 W output power is obtained. The laser exhibits a high conversion efficiency of 64.0% with a high ASE extinction ratio of 66 dB and a narrow … Show more

“…The gain imbalance was significantly improved as the RC-EDF length was shortened, owing to the reduction in the reabsorption effect and absorption. With the 11.5 m RC-EDF, the amplified power was lower than the absorbed power was at the 1530 nm level, which resulted in a negative net gain due to the reabsorption effect [30]. This means that the amplified power under the excessively long RC-EDF was strongly reabsorbed due to the Er 3+ absorption band at around the 1535 nm level.…”

“…With this, it still requires the use of good mathematical methods such as the variational method, functional analysis, supers metric approach, Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU, the asymptotic iteration method and so on In recent period, work has been carried out on to study bound state of KGE for a number of special potentials [1,15] even in the case of equal vector and scalar potential [16], because it reduces KGE to a Schrodinger type of equation which could in turn be transformed into hypergeometric differential equation that has a known solution using [17][18][19][20] and this is more reason why KGE is receiving attention considerably in the literature when it comes to use of potentials [21,22]. In fact it has been shown that exact solution are possible with some certain central potentials [23][24][25][26] which has help in investigation of bound states of the KGE for that particular potential which on the other hand has invariably led to derivation of the exact expression of the energy eigenvalues and the corresponding normalized eigenfunctionns in terms of some special polynomials and hypergeometrical function [16,[27][28][29].…”

“…Research on fiber lasers (FLs) is an area of growing interest in the last years, due to the high performance of these light sources. Multiple possibilities have been investigated, as high power CW FLs [1], pulsed FLs [2], multiwavelength FLs [3], and wavelength tunable FLs [4]. A particular kind are single-frequency FLs, characterized by a very narrow linewidth, which make them suitable for a wide range of applications in optical telecommunications such as wavelength division multiplexed optical systems, sensing, spectroscopy and interferometry.…”
