Abstract

A 20dB gain 12 cores Er<inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$^{3+}$</tex-math></inline-formula>/Yb<inline-formula><tex-math notation="LaTeX">$^{3+}$</tex-math></inline-formula> co-doped cladding pumped amplifier in C-band with only 5.3W of pump power has been achieved. A classical rate equation model has been applied for the amplifier design. Parameters such as active fiber length, pump power and ions concentration have been investigated and optimized. Results obtained through numerical simulation and experimental investigations are compared. Different use cases of MC-EYDFA have been studied, such as various transmission configuration or multi-core amplifier in ROADM architectures. 1200-km with 200G DP-QPSK and 300km with 400G DP-16QAM are achieved in serial configuration at 1550nm. This is a first step towards SDM transmission using power efficient amplifiers, for cost, energy and footprint saving.
