Dual-order Raman fiber laser with suppressed low-frequency pump-to-stokes RIN transfer

By employing an output-power clamping technique, a dual-order Raman fiber laser (RFL) is theoretically presented with suppressed low-frequency relative-intensity-noise (RIN) transfer from pump sources to both first- and second-order Stokes output. Their powers can be easily tuned in a large dynamic range. Furthermore, the second-order output power can be individually controlled, which makes it flexible to adjust the ratio of the first- to second-order output power. In addition, the stabilization of low-power second-order output is also accomplished in the RFL setup. These properties fit the proposed RFL for use as dual-order pump sources in Raman fiber amplifiers.

The study of chromatic dispersion and chromatic dispersion slope of WI- and WII-type triple-clad single-mode fibers

In this paper, the chromatic dispersion and chromatic dispersion slope of two kinds of triple-clad single-mode fibers with a depressed index inner cladding named WI- and WII-type were examined. A feasible approach to calculate chromatic dispersion and higher-order dispersion was established successfully, and the influences made by the optical parameters and geometric parameters on the chromatic dispersion coefficient and its slope were analyzed in detail. The calculated results show that the optical parameter R₂, which symbolizes the third cladding effect, has a strong impact on the chromatic dispersion coefficient and the chromatic dispersion slope, and the degrees of such impact are closely related to the other parameters.

Scattering loss in Nd-doped silica based optical fibers

Rare-earth doped fibers suffer from relatively high attenuation in comparison to conventional communication fibers. In order to improve the properties of such fibers, understanding of the mechanisms involved in scattering effects is of great importance. The effect of Nd-doping, Al-codoping and of the drawing temperature on the scattering effect was investigated for several different optical fibers. To this end a measuring setup was realized which allows absolute measurements of the scattering coefficient at different positions along a fiber. Also separation of total attenuation and scattering effects is possible. The presented results indicate scattering effects as primary source for increased attenuation compared with undoped fibers.
