文摘Using a pump with a multi-line spectrum to broaden the Brillouin gain bandwidth is an effective way to achieve lowdistortion amplification with high gain. Here, we theoretically and experimentally investigate the generation of a broadband Brillouin gain spectrum based on multi-frequency intensity modulation in an optical fiber.

In our experiment, a broadband Brillouin gain spectrum with a bandwidth of about 200 MHz is demonstrated.
