Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier Module Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-EELE-13255

Features

• EDFA System enables student to experimentally investigate the principles and characteristics of EDFA in C Band ( 1530nm – 1565 nm)
• Demonstrates amplification of 1550 nm wavelength along with the detection and measurement of amplified signal.
• Investigation and Analysis of Small and Large Signal Gain
• Facility to implement Forward and Backward Pumping and Study Gain Characteristics

Edfa block diagram

• 1550nm signal and 980nm pumped inside EDF
• 2:1 WDM system is used to combine pump and optical signal (1550nm)
• The Erbium atoms absorb 980nm pump signal and jump to higher energy state
• 1550nm strikes excited Er+3 ions and initiate Stimulated Emission
• 1550nm amplified by stimulated emission

Amplification principle

• Figure above describe the energy level diagram for Er+3 ion
• 1480 nm pump excites Er+3 to quasi metastable stage
• Coincidently, emits wavelengths in the range 1525- 1565nm range while returning back to ground state fromquasi-metastable stage
• This amplifies the signal by stimulated emission.
