Abstract

The first demonstration of a hollow core photonic bandgap fiber suitable for high-rate data transmission at 2μm is presented. Using a custom built Thulium doped fiber amplifier, error-free 8Gbit/s transmission in an optically amplified data channel at 2008nm is reported for the first time.
