1 Optical Amplifiers

2 Optical Amplifiers Optical signal propagating in fiber suffers attenuation Optical power level of a signal must be periodically conditioned Optical amplifiers are a key component in long haul optical communication Weak signal Pin Optical Amplifier (G) Amplified signal P out Pump Source

3 Why the Need for Optical Amplification? Semiconductor devices can convert an optical signal into an electrical signal, amplify it and reconvert the signal back to an optical signal. However, this procedure has several disadvantages: Costly Require a large number over long distances Noise is introduced after each conversion in analog signals (which cannot be reconstructed) Restriction on bandwidth, wavelengths and type of optical signals being used, due to the electronics By amplifying signal in the optical domain many of these disadvantages would disappear!

4 Optical Amplifiers An optical amplifier is characterized by: Gain ratio of output t power to input power (in db) Gain efficiency gain as a function of input power (db/mw) Gain bandwidth range of wavelengths over which the amplifier is effective Gain saturation maximum output power, beyond which no amplification is reached Noise undesired signal due to physical processing in amplifier

5 Optical Amplifiers Types of amplifiers: Electro optic regenerators Erbium-doped optical amplifiers (EDFA) Raman Amplifiers Semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA)

6 Electro Optical Amplifiers Optical signal is: Received and transformed to an electronic signal Amplified in electronic domain Converted back into optical signal at same wavelength

7 Erbium-doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) An erbium-doped fiber amplifier consists of: A length of silica fiber, whose core is doped with rare earth element erbium. A pump laser of 980 nm or 1480 nm. Wavelength selective couplers & Isolators. Combination of several factors has made EDFA an attractive choice: Availability of compact and reliable high-power semiconductor pump lasers Simplicity of device It introduces no crosstalk when amplifying WDM signals

8 EDFA - Construction EDFA is a fiber segment, a few meters long, heavily doped with erbium (rare earth metal) Energy is provided by a pump laser beam

9 EDFA Principle of Operation Amplification is achieved by quantum mechanical phenomena of stimulated emission Erbium ions are excited to a high energy level by pump laser signal They fall to a lower metastable (long lived, 10 ms) state An arriving photon triggers (stimulates) a transition to ground level and another photon of same wavelength is emitted

10 EDFA Principle of Operation EXCITED STATE METASTABLE STATE PUMP PHOTON 980 nm SIGNAL PHOTON 1550 nm STIMULATED PHOTON 1550 nm FUNDAMENTAL STATE FUNDAMENTAL STATE

11 EDFA In the case of erbium ions in silica glass, the set of frequencies that can be amplified by stimulated emission from the E2 band to the E1 band corresponds to the wavelength range nm, 1570nm, a bandwidth of 50 nm, with a peak around. Pumping process is more efficient at 980 nm than these other wavelengths. The pump wavelength is 1480 nm. Pumping at 1480 nm is not as efficient as 980 nm pumping. Moreover, the degree of population inversion that can be achieved by 1480 nm pumping is lower.

12 EDFA The higher the population inversion, the lower the noise figure of the amplifier. Thus 980 nm pumping is preferred to realize low- noise amplifiers. However, higher-power pump lasers are available at 1480 nm, compared to 980nm, and thus 1480m, pumps find applications in amplifiers designed to yield high output powers. Another advantage to the 1480 nm pump is that the pump power can also propagate with low loss in the silica fiber that is used to carry the signals. The pump laser can be located remotely from the amplifier itself. This feature is used in some systems to avoid placing any active components in the middle of the link.

13 EDFA Gain Flatness Population levels at different levels in a band are different The gain is different at different wavelengths Such an EDFA, gives different degrees of amplification in a WDM system To improve the flatness of gain we have different options: Use of Fluoride glass fiber Use of filter inside amplifier

14 EDFFAs Gain Flatness Instead of Silica glass inside amplifier, fluoride glass fiber is used. Erbium-doped Fluoride Fiber Amplifiers The fluoride provides a naturally flattened gain spectrum. EDFFAs are nowadays commercially available.

15 EDFFAs Gain Flatness There are certain drawbacks associated to the EDFFAs The noise performance is poorer in EDFFA as compared to EDFA. Must be pumped at 1480 nm Excited State Absorption Fluoride fiber is itself difficult to handle. Brittle (liable to fracture when subjected to stress) Difficult to splice Susceptible to moisture Filters Gain Flatness Filters can be used to smoothen the high notches in the gain graph. Notch filters are normally used for this purpose.

16 EDFA Principle of Operation

17 Different Wavelength bands Band Descriptor Wavelength range (nm) O-band Original 1260 to 1360 E-band Extended 1360 to 1460 S-band Short 1460 to 1530 C-band Conventional 1530 to 1565 L-band Long 1565 to 1625 U-band Ultra-long 1625 to 1675

18 L-Band EDFAs So far we have focused on EDFAs operating in the C-band ( nm). Ebi Erbium-doped d fiber, however, has a relatively l long tail to the gain shape extending well beyond this range to about 1605 nm. This has stimulated the development of systems in the so-called L-band from 1565 to 1625 nm. Gain spectrum of erbium is much flatter intrinsically in the L- band than in the C-band. This makes it easier to design gain-flattening filters for the L- band. Pump powers required for L-band EDFAs are much higher than their C-band counterparts.

19 Home work Example 6-2 & 6-3

20 EDFA - Advantages EDFAs have high pump power utilization (>50%) Directly and simultaneously amplify a wide wavelength band (> 80 nm) in the 1550 nm region, with a relatively flat gain. Flatness can be improved by gain-flattening optical filters Gain in access of 50 db Low noise figure Suitable for long haul applications Demerit EDFAs are not small and cannot be integrated t with other semiconductor devices

21 Raman Amplifiers Raman amplification is based on the Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) phenomenon to create optical gain The optical amplification occurs in the transmission fiber itself, distributed along the transmission path

22 Raman Amplifiers A lower frequency 'signal' photon induces the inelastic scattering of a higher-frequency 'pump' photon in an optical medium As a result of this, another 'signal' photon is produced, with the surplus energy resonantly passed to the medium allowing all-optical amplification.

23 Raman Amplifiers Unlike EDFAs, we can use the Raman effect to provide gain at any wavelength. Raman amplification can potentially ti open up other bands for WDM, such as the 1310 nm window, or the so-called S-band lying just below 1528 nm. Also, we can use multiple pumps at different wavelengths and different powers simultaneously to tailor the overall Raman gain shape. Another major concern with Raman amplifiers is crosstalk between the WDM signals due to Raman amplification.

24 Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers They are not as good as EDFAs for use as amplifiers. Used for other applications: in switches and wavelength converter devices. First, the population is not those of ions in various energy states but of carriers-electrons or holes. Semiconductor consists of two bands of electron energy levels: a band of low mobility levels called the valence band and a band of high mobility levels called the conduction band. At thermal equilibrium, there is only a very small concentration of electrons in the conduction band of the material,

25 Semiconductor Optical Amplifiers Population inversion condition, the electron concentration in the conduction band is much higher. Population inversion i in an SOA is achieved dby forward-biasing i a pn-junction. Nevertheless, EDFAs are widely preferred to SOAs for several reasons. Main reason is that SOAs introduce severe crosstalk when they are used in WDM systems. Gains and output powers achievable with EDFAs are higher.

26 Crosstalk in SOAs Consider an SOA whose input is the sum of two optical signals at different wavelengths. Assume that both wavelength are within the bandwidth of the SOA. Presence of one signal will deplete the minority carrier concentration by the stimulated emission process so the population inversion seen by the other signal is reduced Thus the other signal will not be amplified to the same extent Thus, for WDM networks, the gain seen by the signal in one channel varies with the presence or absence of signals in other channels. This phenomenon is called crosstalk, and it has a detrimental effect on the system performance.

27 Crosstalk in SOAs This crosstalk phenomenon depends on the spontaneous emission lifetime from the high-energy to the low-energy state. The spontaneous emission lifetime in an EDFA is about 10ms. Therefore lifetime is large enough compared to the rate of fluctuations of power in the input signal. Electrons cannot make the transition from the high-energy state to the lower-energy state in response to these fluctuations. Thus there is no crosstalk whatsoever in EDFAs.

28 Crosstalk in SOAs In the case of SOAs, this lifetime is on the order of nanoseconds. Thus the electrons can easily respond to fluctuations in power of signals modulated at gigabit/second rates, resulting in a major system impairment due to crosstalk. EDFAs are better suited for use in WDM systems than SOAs.
