Abstract

Integration of multiple functions on an optical micro-chip is going to revolutionize the exploitation of optics for various applications such as communication, optical sensing, and biomedicine. One of the enabling functions is amplification at 1.5 µm [1]. Rare-earth-doped amplifiers typically deliver a net gain per unit length of only a few dB/cm [2]. In spiral-shaped channel waveguides a total internal net gain of 20 dB was demonstrated [3].
