    • An optical amplifier comprises an optical fibre, a pump laser for optically pumping the optical fibre to amplify an optical signal, a TEC 1 for cooling the pump laser on receipt of a cooling current, a temperature sensor 2 for monitoring the temperature of the amplifier housing; and a control circuit 3 for controlling the cooling current in dependence on a sensing output from the temperature sensor 2, so as to maintain the temperature of the pump laser at a temperature set point. The control circuit 3 is configured (i) to maintain the temperature of the pump laser at a first temperature set point within a predetermined temperature range of the amplifier, and (ii) to maintain the temperature of the pump laser at a second temperature set point, higher than the first temperature set point, when the sensing output from the temperature sensor 2 exceeds a threshold value. The feature that the temperature set point is raised to a higher level when the temperature of the pump laser goes above a preset level reduces the amount of self-heating of the pump laser, and thus prevents a thermal runaway situation.
    • 一种光放大器,包括光纤,用于光学泵浦光纤放大光信号的泵浦激光器,用于在接收到冷却电流时冷却泵激光器的TEC1;用于监视放大器壳体的温度的温度传感器2 ; 以及用于根据来自温度传感器2的感测输出来控制冷却电流的控制电路3,以将泵浦激光器的温度保持在温度设定点。 控制电路3被配置为(i)将泵浦激光器的温度保持在放大器的预定温度范围内的第一温度设定点,和(ii)将泵浦激光器的温度保持在第二温度设定点 高于第一温度设定点,当温度传感器2的感测输出超过阈值时。 当泵浦激光器的温度超过预设值时,温度设定点升高到较高水平的特征降低了泵浦激光器的自加热量,从而防止了热失控的情况。
