Pair induced quenching in high concentration Holmium-doped fiber amplifiers
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The spectrum required for future optical communication systems is being extended towards the C-, L- and U-bands, resulting in a significant interest in the spectral region around 2 μm wavelength. Since Holmium doped fiber amplifiers (HDFAs) provide amplification in this spectral region, they have become a focus of researchers working on doped fiber amplifiers. A major factor resulting in the performance degradation of HDFAs is the inhomogeneous energy transfer within Ho3+ ion-pairs in high-concentration Holmium-doped fibers (HDFs), an effect generally known as pair-induced quenching (PIQ). In this paper, we study the luminal and temporal dynamics of pulses of different repetition rates at 2.05 μm in high-concentration HDFs considering the effects of ion-pairs. Input pulses having repetition rates of 25 GHz and 500 kHz are generated using wavelength tunable actively mode-locked Holmium-doped fiber laser (AML-HDFL) based on a single ring cavity and bidirectional pumping. The characteristics of the pulses propagating through high-concentration HDF are analyzed based on different metrics such as average power, peak power, pulse energy, full-width at half maximum (FWHM), and time delay without and with ion-pairs for values of fraction of ion-pairs k = 0 and k = 10%, respectively. The results obtained at optimized length of HDF show that ion-pairs significantly degrade the average power, peak power, and energy of the output pulses for both of the repetition rates. For both k = 0 and k = 10%, the FWHM and shape of the output pulses remain same in the presence of the ion-pairs while, time delay of 4 ps and 19 ns is observed in the output pulses at repetition rates of 25 GHz and 500 kHz, respectively. The effects of increasing the pump and signal power on the average power and energy of the output pulses for k = 0 and k = 10% are also discussed for both repetition rates. This analysis provides important guidelines for designers of 2 μm fiber lasers and amplifiers based on high-concentration HDFs.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
