摘要
An apparatus and method for measuring the spectral dependence of the Raman gain coefficient in optical fibers is presented. This approach measures the power level of Raman scattering in both a walk-off limited region and a physical fiber length limited region and, from these measurements, extracts the spectral dependence of the Raman gain coefficient. Access to these two regions is accomplished through control of the excitation pulse temporal width and relies on fiber dispersion to separate the excitation light from the Raman scattered light for short pulse widths. This approach measures the spectral dependence of the Raman gain without the necessity of absolute power measurement of the Raman scattered light, the need for a reference standard, or the need of a frequency tunable secondary optical source.
