The optical coupler comprises a hollow optical block having a through hole formed to pass an optical fiber therethrough. The hollow optical block comprises at least one incidence plane, at least one internal reflection plane, and at least one tapering region. The incidence plane is disposed at the bottom of the hollow optical block, which is parallel to the through hole, to incident-transmit light. The internal reflection plane is disposed at the top of the hollow optical block, which is opposite to the incidence plane, to reflect the light, which is received from the incidence plane, into the hollow optical block. The tapering region is configured to concentrate the light on the optical fiber in the through hole. The tapering region is formed such that the outer diameter of the hollow optical block decreases away from the internal reflection plane and the incidence plane.

摘要： Provided is a gain-clamped fiber amplifier for amplifying the magnitude of an input optical signal in an optical communication system. The gain-clamped fiber amplifier includes a first amplifier for amplifying a predetermined optical signal and a second amplifier for compensating for a noise figure characteristic of the first amplifier and for separating remaining pumping light whose intensity changes in accordance with an optical signal. Therefore, it is possible to improve the noise figure and dynamic range characteristics and the performance of the amplifier.

摘要： Provided is an all-optical gain-clamped fiber amplifier, comprising transmission and isolation means for periodically transmitting an optical signal or reflecting amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) back to a gain medium. The transmission and isolation means can be embodied by an optical interleaver or a number of optical fiber Bragg gratings. Accordingly, an optical signal can be amplified across the entire C-band, and an ASE reflector-based gain-clamped fiber amplifier having a wider dynamic range than conventional amplifiers can be implemented.

摘要： Provided is a gain-clamped (GC) optical amplifier using a fiber Raman amplifier (FRA) having a Raman cavity. The FRA having a Raman cavity comprises a Raman fiber module (RFM) amplifying and outputting an input optical signal and a resonant cavity generating a Raman laser and a gain clamping laser (GC laser), wherein the resonant cavity is formed as a feedback loop between an input terminal and an output terminal of the RFM. Accordingly, a gain of an optical signal propagating along a core of RFM keeps a constant value regardless of input signal intensity by generating the GC laser for gain clamping between a wavelength band of the Raman laser and a gain band of input signals.
