Abstract(in English) We describe the first wide-band tellurite-based fiber Raman amplifier. The amplifier provided a 160 nm bandwidth with a gain of over 10 dB and a noise figure below 10 dB from 1490 to 1650 nm with a tellurite-based fiber only 250 m in length pumped by 4-wavelength-channel LDs. We measured the BER to confirm the transmission characteristics of the amplifier in the following two cases (1) single channel operation in a 10 Gbit/s NRZ format for the whole signal wavelength range of 160 nm (2) using an amplifier with an output power of 18.8 dBm in which we simultaneously amplified eight channel signals in a 10 Gbit/s NRZ format in the L-band located on the ITU 100-GHz grid. The results indicated that there was no power penalty in the BER curves. We thus confirmed that the amplifier could be employed in ultra-high capacity WDM systems.
