Thermal Tuning Of Optical Amplifiers And Use Of Same In Wavelength Division Multiplexed Systems

US Patent:
6320693, Nov 20, 2001
Filed:
Jun 29, 1999
Appl. No.:
9/343661
Inventors:
Richard J. Cereo - Beaver Dams NY
David O. Culverhouse - Montour Falls NY
Thomas W. McNamara - Corning NY
Assignee:
Corning Incorporated - Corning NY
International Classification:
H04J 1402
H01S 3131
US Classification:
359337
Abstract:
Techniques for controlling the shape of the gain spectrum of an optical amplifier (13) based on the temperature and level of inversion of the amplifier's amplifying medium (20) are provided. An increase in temperature for an amplifying medium having a high level of inversion results in an increase in gain for longer wavelengths relative to shorter wavelengths, i. e. , a counterclockwise tilt of the gain spectrum, while an increase in temperature for an amplifying medium having a lower level of inversion results in the opposite effect, i. e. , a clockwise tilt. These effects can be used to compensate for changes in the operating conditions of the amplifier, e. g. , to compensate for changes in signal powers. The effects of thermal tuning are especially useful in WDM systems employing multi-stage amplifiers.
