Abstract

We investigate fiber optical parametric amplification (FOPA) in a structure of an As2S3 core and TeO2 cladding photonic crystal fiber (PCF). Various amplification features such as wavelength area, parametric gain value, and bandwidth are investigated. In order to design the FOPA system with optimal features, effects of different structural parameters variation on optical features of the PCF and parametric gain subsequently are also investigated numerically based on the finite-difference time domain numerical method. Using 15 cm of this fiber and a continuous wave pump laser of 1.1 W, we attain a gain spectrum of 350 nm with a maximum value of 37 dB around 1550 and 1310 nm, which are favored wavelengths in optical telecommunication systems. In fact, our structure ends in a wideband amplifier in an absolutely compact size, which is optimized exactly for optical telecommunication applications.
