Abstract:
An optical amplifier is provided in which radiation levels experienced by an optical fiber are minimized. A sealed enclosure houses an optical fiber. An input optical signal enters on end of the fiber and an amplified output optical signal exits the other end of the optical fiber. Small particles embedded with a gas fill the interior of the enclosure. An optical pump supplies an amplification laser beam coupled to one of the ends of the optical fiber. Due to energy supplied by the amplification laser beam, the input optical signal is amplified upon exiting the optical fiber. At least a portion of the gas embedded in the small particles is released inside the enclosure when the small particles are subjected to heat to provide a gaseous interior in the enclosure that minimizes radiation levels experienced by the optical fiber due to external radiation.

Claim (Index 11):
The assembly of  claim 10  further comprising:\n a monitor that monitors the power level of the amplified optical signal, the monitor providing an output control signal coupled to the heat controller that controls whether the heat controller causes the heating element to generate heat.
