Bi{sub}2O{sub}3-based Erbium doped fiber for Short Pulse Amplification

摘要

We demonstrate short pulse amplification, and compare the nonlinear tolerance of a Bi{sub}2O{sub}3-based erbium doped fiber (EDF) with a conventional silica-based EDF. The Bi{sub}2O{sub}3-based EDF shows highly nonlinear tolerance and superior short pulse amplification performances.
