Abstract
We introduce a novel (to our knolwedge) interferometric fiber optic parametric amplifier (FOPA), allowing for the suppression of unwanted four-wave mixing products. We perform simulations of two configurations where one rejects idlers and, the other rejects nonlinear crosstalk from the signal output port. The numerical simulations presented here demonstrate the practical feasibility of suppressing idlers by >28 dB across at least 10 THz enabling the reuse of the idler frequencies for signal amplification and thus doubling the employable FOPA gain bandwidth. We demonstrate it can be achieved even when the interferometer employs real-world couplers by introducing a small attenuation in one of the interferometer arms.
