| 简介 |
There is the problem that, in a multicore optical fiber amplifier based on a clad excitation method, it is difficult to suppress the occurrence of an optical surge due to input of signal light into a core with no signal light, without the occurrence of fluctuation in the gain of a core into which signal light is inputted; therefore, a multicore optical fiber amplifier according to an exemplary aspect of the present invention includes a multicore optical fiber amplification medium including, in a clad, a plurality of cores doped with a rare earth element; signal light introduction means for introducing, into each of the plurality of cores, signal light with a wavelength included in a gain band of the multicore optical fiber amplification medium; excitation light introduction means for introducing, into the clad, excitation light for exciting the multicore optical fiber amplification medium; and control light introduction means for introducing control light into each of the plurality of cores, wherein the control light introduction means introduces the control light into a non-signal core into which the signal light is not being introduced, among the plurality of cores, only when the excitation light is being introduced. |
