| Abstract | We report on the analog performance of gain-clamped semiconductor optical amplifiers (GC-SOAs) with a full 50-550 MHz 77-channel NTSC loading. The optical gain of such an amplifier is linear i.e., independent of input power, when operated under gain-clamped conditions. The amplifier has distributed Bragg reflectors (DBR) at each end, which cause wavelength-selective feedback and hence, laser action at the DBR wavelength. This fixes the carrier concentration, effectively damping the optical gain of the device. The laser light serves as a reservoir of optical power and determines the maximum input power for which the device operates under linear conditions. Once the input level exceeds this limit the gain will no longer be clamped, and the device will exhibit the nonlinearities as observed for conventional SOAs. The gain-clamped amplifier developed for this study has a fiber-to-fiber gain of 21 dB at 1310 nm, and operates at input powers up to -12 dBm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
