OPTICAL AMPLIFIER An optical amplifier is a device that amplifies an optical signal directly‚ without the need to first convert it to an electrical signal. An optical amplifier may be thought of as a laser without an optical cavity‚ or one in which feedback from the cavity is suppressed. Optical amplifiers are important in optical communication and laser physics. There are several different physical mechanisms that can be used to amplify a light signal‚ which correspond to the major types of optical
