本論文中,我們針對長波段掺鉺光纖放大器進行研究,探討掺鉺光纖的長度以及幫激雷射的功率對光纖放大器的增益與雜訊指數的影響。近幾年來,長波段掺鉺光纖放大器受到高度重視。首先,我們先使用模擬軟體來模擬我們所提出的復行(double-pass)長波段架構,即ㄧ開始先在第一級的掺鉺光纖之前注入傳統波段信號來改進雜訊指數及增益的特性,並且在第二級的掺鉺光纖之後加上一個反射鏡,使之來回兩次來進行放大。跑模擬時,我們藉由調整兩級掺鉺光纖的長度以及兩級幫激雷射的功率來設計適合WDM系統使用的長波段放大器,而不需額外再加任何的增益等化器。後來我們調出最佳化的結果,我們在1600 nm輸入-30 dBm,以及在進入第一級掺鉺光纖之前我們先注入功率為-10 dBm的1550 nm波段的信號,第一級和第二級的掺鉺光纖長度分別為30公尺和50公尺,而第一級和第二級的幫激雷射功率分別操作在40 mW和60 mW。在這個復行(double-pass)的長波段系統中,我們模擬結果出來最佳的輸出的增益在45 dB,雜訊指數在4.5 dB。當模擬出最佳工作條件後,我們就實際去架設我們所提出的復行(double-pass)長波段放大器,並且量測實驗結果,而實驗結果,放大器的增益為39.40 dB,雜訊指數為5.22 dB,與2003年別人提出的(double-pass)架構相比較,發現我們量測的雜訊指數與他們差不多,但我們的增益比他們高5.9 dB。我們也用理論模擬的方法分析與實驗相同架構之長波段掺鉺光纖放大器的特性,模擬的結果與實驗的結果趨勢相當吻合。
In this thesis, we investigate the amplification characteristics of L-band (1570 nm ~ 1610 nm) erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) by employing the 980 nm forward pumping configuration. In recent years, double-pass long wavelength band EDFAs are attractive. A new double-pass L-band EDFA with enhanced noise figure (NF) and gain characteristics is demonstrated by injecting C-band signal in front of a double-pass amplifier. We use an optical reflector to reroute the optical signals back to the same piece of EDF so as to amplify the optical signals twice. Then, we adjusted the length of erbium-doped fiber (EDF) and the power of pump laser to achieve the flat amplification characteristics in the 1570 nm ~ 1610 nm wavelength region without using gain equalizers. With an injection of -10 dBm at 1550 nm, 5.9 dB of gain enhancement for -30 dBm input at 1600 nm was achieved. The new double-pass system has demonstrated to achieve a flat-gain output at about 45 dB, and a NF of about 4.5 dB in this region. We used simulation tools to investigate the characteristics of L-band EDFA with the same configuration. The NF of proposed L-band EDFA is 5.22 dB, and the gain is 39.40 dB. The simulated results are similar with the experimental results.
