Abstract

The paper presents the experimental and theoretical evaluation of sensitivity of the copper bromide vapor brightness amplifier (l=50 cm; d=3.2 cm). The research was performed in two experimental modes: Single-Pass brightness amplifier system and the Master oscillator Power Amplifier (MOPA) system. The dependencies of the gain factor (K) and the output signal power (P_OUT) on the input signal power (P_IN) are shown. The input signal power was wearied from 2 μW to 200 mW. The results show that the minimal input signal power, which can be amplified, is (0.001÷0.010) % of ASE power.
