摘要：

We describe the wavelength dependence of small-signal picosecond pulse energy gain and cw power gain, as well as saturation energy and saturation output power spectra, in 1.5 μm multiple quantum well optical amplifiers of different lengths and under various drive conditions. The present devices have gain spectra with bandwidths (3 dB) that can exceed 1000 Å. Saturation output energies and powers increase with wavelength and are as large as 5 pJ and ∼40 mW, respectively.
