Abstract: Signal wave parametric gain was calculated in photonic crystal optical fiber. Photonic crystal fiber structure was optimized for broadband parametric gain. It is shown, that gain bandwidth for photonic-crystal fiber optical parametric amplifier could be more than 400 nm. Spectral changings in parametric gain due to modulation of photonic crystal waveguide cross-section was studied.

Keywords: photonic crystal, nonlinear effects, parametrical gain, numerical modeling, photonic crystal fiber, waveguide, dispersion.
