Abstract

The details of fiber Brillouin amplifier modules developed for optical frequency dissemination and installed on the fiber link between Braunschweig and Strasbourg for performing optical clock comparisons are described and documented. The performance of these fiber Brillouin amplification modules is characterized in terms of gain, one-way phase shift, and signal-to-noise ratio across a wide parameter space of signal and pump powers. Finally, upper estimates are derived for the frequency transfer uncertainty contributions resulting from the non-reciprocity induced by the fiber Brillouin amplifier modules based on the characterized one-way phase shift.
