Characterization and modeling of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers and impact of fiber dispersion on semiconductor laser noise

This thesis describes theoretical and experimental studies on two subjects: first is characterization, design and modeling of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs); second is the effect of fiber dispersion on the noise of distributed feedback (DFB) lasers and the impact of this effect on the perf...
