We present a suite of silica-based thulium-doped fiber amplifiers (TDFAs) operating across the 1650–2050nm waveband. High gain and low NF are achieved by combining several TDFA designs optimized for short, central and long wavelength operation.
We report the first demonstration of in-band diode-pumped silica-based thulium-doped fiber amplifiers working in the 1.7–1.8 μm waveband. Compared to previously reported results, 90 nm gain extension has been achieved by exploiting novel amplifier designs.
We report the first demonstration of an inline two mode group thulium-doped fiber amplifier (TMG-TDFA) operating at 2µm for mode-division multiplexed transmission. Similar gain and noise figure performance are obtained for both spatial modes under cladding-pumped operation.
We report the realization of a thulium doped fiber amplifier designed for optical communications providing high gain (>35dB) and low noise figure (<;6dB) over 1910nm-2020nm with a maximum saturated output power of more than 1W.
We report the first experimental realization of thulium doped fiber amplifier providing high gain (>40dB), noise figure as low as 5dB and over 100nm wide bandwidth around 2µm with maximum saturated output power of 400mW.
We have developed a new thin-window, n-type, low-resistivity, spiral silicon drift detector (SDD) array - to be used as an extraterrestrial X-ray spectrometer (in varying environments) for NASA. To achieve low-energy response, a thin SDD entrance window was produced using a previously developed method. These thin-window devices were also produced on lower resistivity, thinner, n-type, silicon material,...
In this paper, we present a Gibbs Random Field (GRF) modeling based Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF) algorithm, called GRF-NMF. We propose to treat the component matrix of NMF as a Gibbs random field. Since each component presents a localized object part, as usually expected, we propose an energy function with the prior knowledge of smoothness and locality. This way of directly modeling on the...
