A magnetic device comprises a magnetic element, a first magnetic field application device, and a second magnetic field application device. The first and second magnetic field applying means are disposed on mutually opposite sides of the magnetic element. The magnetic element is, for example, an element in which a soft magnetic film is formed in a meandering shape on a nonmagnetic substrate. The first and second magnetic field application device create a magnetic field in one direction from the first magnetic field application device toward the second magnetic field application device. The bias magnetic field in one direction is thereby applied to the entire soft magnetic film in the magnetic element disposed between the first and second magnetic field application device.

A method for detecting a connector disengagement of an optical fiber amplifier and a transmission optical fiber connected thereto, the optical fiber amplifier including a doped optical fiber and a pumping light source, and a transmission optical fiber including at least one connecting portion connected to an output of the optical fiber amplifier, includes the steps of: measuring a reflection from the transmission optical fiber to the optical fiber amplifier; and comparing the reflection to an allowable range between a first threshold that is greater than a predetermined reflection in the absence of a connector disengagement, and a second threshold that is smaller than the predetermined reflection in the absence of a connector disengagement; determining that there is no connector disengagement when the measured reflection is within the allowable range; and determining that there is a connector disengagement otherwise.

In an optical amplifier using a rare earth element-doped optical fiber such as an erbium-doped optical fiber, a variation of amplification gain resulting from temperature change is suppressed and the gain-temperature characteristic is enhanced. Moreover, the quantity of temperature compensation in the gain is easily adjustable. Light from an excitation light source is input to an optical fiber for optical amplification comprising a rare earth element-doped optical fiber, via a temperature compensation optical fiber comprising a rare earth element-doped optical fiber such as an erbium-doped optical fiber. By changing the length of this temperature compensation optical fiber, the quantity of temperature compensation is finely adjusted.
