  • Abstract
    A gain-flattened erbium-doped silica fibre amplifier (EDSFA) has been developed for amplifying WDM signals in the S-band. The EDSFA exhibits a signal gain of over 21 dB, a gain excursion of less than 1.9 dB, and a noise figure of less than 6.7 dB in the 1491-1518 nm wavelength range
