ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber for Raman amplification amplifies a signal light with a pumping light. A chromatic dispersion at a wavelength of 1,550 nm is in a range between −70 ps
m/km and −30 ps
m/km. Raman gain efficiency with a pumping light of 1,450 nm is equal to or more than 5 (W×km)−1. Nonlinear coefficient at the wavelength of 1,550 nm is equal to or less than 5.0×10−9W−1. Zero-dispersion wavelength is neither at a wavelength of the signal light nor at a wavelength of the pumping light. Cut-off wavelength is equal to or less than the wavelength of the pumping light.
