Amplification With Chalcogenide Glass Fiber

Abstract

This invention pertains to an optical device and method for using a chalcogenide glass waveguide to amplify a pump light beam by means of stimulated Raman scattering and obtaining a depleted pump light beam and an amplified beam at a wavelength higher than the wavelength of the depleted pump light beam.
