Abstract
Optical fiber amplifiers mainly use rare earth elements as dopants. In the past 20 years, with the research on plastic optical fiber amplifiers doped with different natural elements (such as erbium and thulium), the performance of optical fiber amplifiers has been significantly improved. However, the application potential of natural elements has reached its limit. To improve optical communication, researchers are working on a fiber amplifier with a better flat gain and more intense light. In this paper, the quantum dot fiber amplifier is treated as a three-level structure, and a genetic algorithm is used to optimize the quantum dot fiber amplifier to maximize the total output power. In this study, by solving and analyzing the rate and power propagation equations of the numerical model, the gain spectrum of the amplifier at a wavelength of 1200~1700nm is obtained as a function of fiber length and doping concentration. Draw three-dimensional images based on fiber length, doping concentration, and ASE power axis to find the maximum power at the highest point of the image. Then, combined with the optimization results of the genetic algorithm, the maximum value of the total power is obtained.
