In this paper, we propose a simple model to investigate the quantum defect between pump and signal photons in thulium-doped fiber amplifiers. The achievable quantum defects are limited by several factors, i.e., pump and signal wavelengths, fiber length, area ratio between inner cladding and core, an...
