Compact and wide-band bismuth-based erbium-doped fibre amplifier based on two-stage and double-pass approaches

In this study, a wide-band erbium-doped fibre amplifier (EDFA) operating in both C- and L-band wavelength regions is demonstrated based on two-stage and double-pass approaches. The amplifier employs two pieces of 21 and 46 cm long bismuthbased EDFs (Bi-EDFs) optimised for C- and L-band operations,...
