Gain-clamped two-stage L-band EDFA with a FBG laser in second stage
A gain-clamped two-stage L-band EDFA is demonstrated by simply incorporating two different FBGs on both side of EDF in the second stage. It forms a FBG laser at 1560 nm to clamp the gain in the system. The gain is clamped at about 16.5 dB with gain variation of less than 1.0 dB at dynamic range up t...
