    Abstract: In the optical amplifier an optical divider based on long wavelength (or short wavelength) transmission type dielectric multi-layer filter divides input signal light according to wavelengths, and amplifying sections disposed in parallel and having different respective wavelength amplification regions respectively amplify light signals emitted from the optical divider, and an optical combiner based on long wavelength (or short wavelength) transmission type dielectric multi-layer filter combines light signals output from the respective amplifying sections. In another configuration of the optical amplifier, input signal light is divided using an optical divider based on a dielectric multi-layer filter of a long wavelength (or short wavelength) transmission type, and output signals from the divider are filtered using an optical filter connected in series to a short wavelength (or long wavelength) amplifier generating a loss in the long wavelength (or short wavelength) region of the light signals. Interference noise caused by residual reflection components in the dielectric multi-layer filter is thus suppressed, thereby increasing the bandwidth of useable wavelengths in the signal light.
