Abstract
In this paper the gain of Silica based Thulium doped fibre amplifier (TDFA) for different values of doping concentrations and doping radius has evaluated. The considered doping radius range is from 0.3 μm to 1.3 μm with an increment of 0.2 μm and the doping concentration range is from 20ppm to 140ppn with an increment of 20 ppm. In all considered cases, the best and almost similar performance has been achieved for 20ppm doping concentration with 0.9μm doping radius and for 60 ppm doping concentration with 0.5μm doping radius. The gain as high as 17.71dB has been obtained at 1470nm for 60 ppm doping concentration and 0.5μm doping radius..
