摘要
A high-power fibre laser operating at 1.24 mu m was used to provide broad band Raman gain around 1.3 mu m in compact, efficient, silica fibre-amplifier configurations, The gain and noise performances of these broad band amplifiers are described, as well as the mechanism for further increasing and flattening the operational bandwidth.
