Abstract

A semiconductor travelling wave optical amplifier in presented in a new configuration. An amplifier chip (20) has the rear facet (23) provided with a reflective coating. Optical signals are input and amplified signals are output via optical fibers (21, 35, 30) and directional coupler (24). A single fiber-to-amplifier alignment is required between fibre tail (25) and the front facet (22) is provided with a very low reflectivity coating. In this configuration the amplification is increased in comparison with the conventional in-line amplifier configuration.
