A photonic integrated circuit–based erbium-doped amplifier [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2022
Erbium-doped fiber amplifiers revolutionized long-haul optical communications and laser technology. Erbium ions could provide a basis for efficient optical amplification in photonic integrated circuits but their use remains impractical as a result of ...

The cochlear amplifier [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2004
What is it? It's the ear's built-in hearing aid. If your cochlea, the organ of hearing, did not amplify sounds the mechanical vibrations would be about hundred times too small to activate the sensory hair cells. The cochlear amplifier describes the collection of processes that increase sound vibrations in the inner ear.Why should we be interested in ...

Optimizing the Nonlinearity and Dissipation of a SNAIL Parametric Amplifier for Dynamic Range [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Applied, 2018
We present a new quantum-limited Josephson-junction-based 3-wave-mixing parametric amplifier, the SNAIL Parametric Amplifier (SPA), which uses an array of SNAILs (Superconducting Nonlinear Asymmetric Inductive eLements) as the source of tunable ...

High Efficiency Power Amplifier Based on Envelope Elimination and Restoration Technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Due to complex envelope and phase modulation employed in modern transmitters it is necessary to use power amplifiers that have high linearity. Linear power amplifiers (classes A, B and AB) are commonly used, but they suffer from low efficiency especially

Capacities of Quantum Amplifier Channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Quantum amplifier channels are at the core of several physical processes. Not only do they model the optical process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion, but the transformation corresponding to an amplifier channel also describes the physics of the

Phase-Preserving Linear Amplifiers Not Simulable by the Parametric Amplifier [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2020
It is commonly accepted that a parametric amplifier can simulate a phase-preserving linear amplifier regardless of how the latter is realized [Caves et al., Phys. Rev. A 86, 063802 (2012)]. If true, this reduces all phase-preserving linear amplifiers to a single familiar model. Here we disprove this claim by constructing two counterexamples. A detailed
