Flat and broadband amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) spectrum, which covers both C and L-band regions is demonstrated. The ASE source employs 49 and 215 cm long Bismuth-based erbium-doped fiber (Bi-EDF) to provide C- and L-band amplifications, respectively as gain media in conjunction with double...
