The Role of Rayleigh Backscattering of Coherent Light in the Mode Dynamics of Random DFB Fiber Lasers

Abstract: I would like to thank my advisor Jean Pierre von der Weid, whose teaching capabilities go far beyond optics and photonics. I learned to be curious about every tiny detail, which not often, but occasionally, hides incredible answers, revealed only to those who persist in being curious.To all my colleagues and friends from the photonics laboratory at PUC-Rio, who were always there to help and happy to discuss about all the interesting phenomena we witnessed over the years.To my wife, who enlightens my days with … Show more

“…In this work, demonstrates that when inserted in a ring, SOAs can simultaneously work as a gain medium and modulator in fiber laser configurations. In our lab, we use a SOA model SOA1013SXS [66] with FWHM bandwidth measured to be of 33-nm (see figure 2.6(a)) for an injection current of 425-mA [67]. Figure 2.7 shows the measured gain for bias currents varying from 0 to 400 mA.…”

“…For currents higher than I T the SOA provides gain to the input signal, however, further increase in the driving current gives less gain, thus, a gain saturation with driving current is observed. The results shown in Figure 2.7, a low power input signal had to be used, with input power of -20-dBm (small signs) [67]. For large signals, SOA saturates for smaller injection currents and consequently operates with gain compression.…”
