Composite tellurite - fluorophosphate fiber for parametric amplification

The authors present the design, dispersion calculations and tailoring, and parametric gain calculations for the composite tellurite fluorophosphate glass fiber. The authors show that it is possible to design the zero flattened dispersion fiber or the fiber providing two ZDWLs in the communication band, which in turn can generate broadband parametric amplification. The authors study the effect of dimensional parameters of the fiber on the dispersion. Such dispersion curve management is highly useful for generating the non-linear processes including four wave mixing and parametric amplification.
