Abstract

Abstract A comprehensive and integrated exact analytical formalism is presented for erbium-doped fiber amplifiers and lasers (EDFALs) in one single configuration based on solutions of a system of rate and propagation equations represented by a homogenously broadened four band transition scheme while incorporating amplified spontaneous emission and excited state absorption effects. The formalism, under steady-state conditions, concurrently provides considerable insight into physical characteristics underlying phenomena pertinent to EDFALs and allows precise evaluation of behavior exhibited by EDFALs through a judicious selection of pump intensity and fiber length in standard eye-safe low-erbium concentration uniformly doped mono-mode silica glass fibers in co- and counter- propagating directions appropriate to signal, pump and ASE regimes.
