Characterisation of a multi-electrode bulk SOA for low NF in-line amplification in passive optical networks.
In: 12th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks, 27 June-1 July 2010, Munich Germany.
Abstract
A bulk semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) utilizing a multi-contact biasing method is characterized as
a function of the bias current supplied to each section Firstly, amplified spontaneous emission spectra and
characteristic light-current profiles are analyzed. Single-pass gain and noise figure of the SOA are then assessed
by injecting a continuous wave input beam. Finally, the amplification of a 10 Gb/s (215-1) long pseudo random
bit sequence signal is analysed. The obtained results, particularly at a bias condition of 90mA-50mA-10mA,
reveal the potential of this device as a low noise figure in-line amplifier.
