Abstract

To raise the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) threshold, we have fabricated an optical fibre having a core heavily doped with germanium oxide and displaced from the fibre axis. A method has been proposed for broadening the SBS gain spectrum of the fibre by winding it onto a smalldiameter spool, and a broadening of the spectrum by 5.4 dB has been demonstrated, which indicates an increase in SBS threshold by 4.1 dB.
