Abstract

Record performance from a two-pump parametric amplifier constructed with highly nonlinear fibre is reported. Equalised continuous-wave parametric gain of 40 dB was achieved over 33.8 nm without any gain-flattening elements. Maximal difference between signal and idler powers was measured to be 1 dB within the equalised gain band.
