Semiconductor optical amplifiers for all transmission wavelength bands

Bart H. Verbeek and Leo H. Spiekman

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

An overview is presented of the progress in design and characteristics of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOA) for 1310, 1400 and 1550 nm operation in fiber optical transmission systems. The technology and performance of SOAs will be discussed with respect to optical gain, noise figure, saturation output power and polarization (in-) dependent behavior.
