Abstract
Amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) suppression techniques were utilized to fabricate
a double-pass, Yb-doped amplifier with the noise properties of a single-pass
amplifier. Simulations based on a rate equation model were used to analyze the ASE and
the effectiveness of the suppression techniques. These techniques were implemented in an
alignment-free, double-pass, Yb-doped fiber amplifier with a
