 This is an optical amplifier.

 Amplified signal in the optical domain.


 Works on the principle of Stimulated Raman Scattering.
Raman Amplifiers

 Use stimulated Raman effect and pump laser whose frequency is equal to signal frequency plus
frequency of chemical bond in the materials.
 Because it is a nonlinear process , requires very high pump power(watts).
 A Raman Amplifier is a device which takes input Ws and amplified in the same direction or
opposite direction with pump laser Wp.
The Mechanism of Raman Amplification
 Vibration of optical cable take places.

 By the intraction stimulated Raman scattering occours.
