A photonic crystal fiber (PCF) with a zero-dispersion wavelength (ZDW) in the telecommunication region is designed and an ultra-broadband fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA) based on such PCF is simulated. Results show that the PCF-based FOPA exhibits much higher gain with a very broad bandwidth (covering O- to U-band) in comparison with the highly nonlinear fiber (HNLF)-based FOPA. Also, the required fiber length and the input pump power are reduced for the PCF-based FOPA. The obtained results show the great potential of the PCF-based OPA for the telecommunication applications, e.g. amplification of wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) signals.

The impact of pump parameters on dual-pump (2-P) fiber optical parametric amplifier (FOPA) is investigated. The four-wave model of coupled amplitude equations with fiber losses and pump depletion are solved numerically for the calculation of the parametric gain. Simulation results indicate that an increase in pump powers does not only enhances the parametric gain but also flattening the amplification bandwidth. Moreover, separating the pumps wavelengths further from each other can also improve the flatness of the bandwidth. Besides that, the parametric gain flatness can be improved when the separation between the pump central wavelength and zero-dispersion wavelength is small. In essence, the optimal performance of 2-P FOPA can be achieved when the pump parameters are carefully tailored.

AbstractIn this paper, the dispersion characteristics of two standard single-mode optical fibers (SMFs), fabricated with silica and poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) are studied in telecommunication spectral regions. The effect of structural parameters, such as the radius of the fiber core and the relative core-cladding index difference, is numerically investigated. It is found that over whole spectral range, the PMMA-based SMF shows lower dispersion than the silica SMF. Also, the zero-dispersion wavelength (ZDW) of PMMA-based SMF is longer than that of silica fiber. The results may be of practical importance for the telecommunication applications.
