Abstract:In this paper, a fiber amplifier based on ZBLAN fiber doped with dysprosium is designed and optimized considering an in-band pumping scheme. The model is validated by comparing the simulated amplified spontaneous emission with the experimental curves reported in the literature. It allows to investigate the amplification of the signal of a continuous-wave fiber laser emitting in the wavelength range from 2.9 μm to 3.25 μm. The numerical analysis is carried out via home-made code that accurately takes into accou… Show more
