This few mode fiber Erbium doped amplifier has
been developed within the EU supported
MODE-GAP project. The amplifier covers C band
and is available in 3-mode (LP01, LP11a, LP11b)
and 6-mode (LP01, LP11a, LP11b, LP21a, LP21b,
LP02) options. Low noise figure and high gain is
achievable across the full set of modes. The
differential modal gain is low and flat across the
wavelength range.
