Abstract

The operation principle of distributed optical fiber Raman gain amplifier has been discussed. The amplification phenomena have been observed in the 1410-nm wavelength range pumped by the 1320-nm solid laser using 23-km single-mode GI optical fiber. The Raman gain is depending on optical fiber interaction length . The optical fiber effective interaction lengths are 15.5 km and 10.5 km when pump pulse peak power are 50W and 30W. The relation between the gain of Raman amplifier and pump power at different effective interaction length of optical fiber is discussed. The Raman gain of optical fiber is 0.62x10-15 m/W during 50W pump power and the effective interaction area of optical fiber is 30 micrometers 2. The effective interaction area of optical fiber is 41.4 micrometers 2 during the pump power is 30W.© (2001) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
