Abstract
Wavelength dependence of quantum noise in nondegenerate phase-sensitive amplification in an optical fiber, where signal and its phase-conjugated idler lights are incident into a fiber together with pump light, is theoretically investigated. An analytical formula of the quantum-limited noise figure, that takes Raman scattering into account as well as parametric amplification, is derived based on full quantum mechanical treatment. Using the obtained formula, a calculation example of the noise figure spectrum is also presented, where the pump light phase is adjusted so that the signal gain is maximum at a phase-matched wavelength, supposing multichannel amplification.
