Abstract
The 0.98 µm laser diode-pumped erbium-doped optical fiber amplifier (EDFA) is a very attractive device for 1.5 µm optical comunication systems because it provides high gain coefficient, low noise, and low electricity consumption. This paper describes recent progress on individual optical components and their modules for this type of EDFA.
