Resumen o descripción
In this work we present a novel design of an optical amplifier with high gain elaborated from erbium-doped fiber (EDF). Its purpose is the amplification of low power pulses from laser diodes. The high power of the output pulses allows the investigation of nonlinear processes in optical fibers. The optical amplifier consists of two stages. The first stage uses a reflective configuration where a signal is amplified twice in the same EDF. The fiber Bragg grating (FBG) was the main element to reflect the signal. The second stage works as a high power amplifier. The input pulse has duration in the range of 1 to 50 ns, with wavelength equal to 1549.1 nm. With input pulse power of 1.5 mW, the amplifier provides 70 W in the output pulse. The gain obtained by the amplifier was 47 dB.
