Abstract

Semiconductor-laser amplifiers (SLA’s) can perform many optical-signal-processing functions. In addition to loss compensation and switching, a SLA can simultaneously amplify and detect an optical signal.1 Recently, two-contact amplifiers have demonstrated improved detection responsivi ty.23 Here, we show that a three-section SLA can further be used to monitor amplifier gain.
