Abstract

To optimize the efficiency of optical amplifiers operating in the L-band, an L-band optical amplifier includes a doped fiber having a cut-off wavelength greater than 1 535 nm and a coupler for coupling into the fiber a pump supplying light in the C-band. The C-band pump is a high-power pump, with a power rating of at least 10 mW, which supplies at least 10% of the pumping energy. A pump operating at a wavelength below the C-band can also be coupled into the fiber, for example a 980 nm or 1 480 nm pump.
