abstract:
A numerical model for Yb3+ sensitized Er3+-doped silica-titania channel waveguide amplifiers is developed and implemented in a computer code. The possibility of achieving high gain with a reduced length is demonstrated and for a copropagating pump power of 100 mW, a gain G= 6.2 dB is calculated a with a noise figure F=4.22 dB.
