The project is aimed at theoretical and experimental investigation of
cladding-pumped erbium-ytterbium-doped optical fibres (EYDF) with novel
method of coupling the pump into the inner cladding of the active fiber.
For this purpose a specific cross section of the double-clad (DC) active
fiber will be designed. A large signal, space and frequency resolved
numerical model of the fibre will be developed to analyze the
performance of the amplifier with the DC-EYDF and to optimize its
parameters. The DC-EYDF fabricated according to the design will be
tested in an experimental fibre amplifier and laser. The developed
laboratory fibre amplifier module will be used mainly for the
investigation of the hybrid optical amplifiers studied within the frame
project.
