Semiconductor Optical Amplifier (SOA) utilizes semiconductor materials as the gain medium, enabling direct optical signal amplification without prior conversion to electrical signals. This unique property not only simplifies the optical amplification process but also lays the foundation for more efficient and compact optical systems.

Since the invention of the world's first semiconductor laser in 1962, the semiconductor laser has undergone tremendous changes, greatly promoting the development of other science and technology, and is considered to be one of the greatest human inventions in the twentieth century. In the past ten years, semiconductor lasers have developed more rapidly and have become the fastest growing laser technology in the world. The application range of semiconductor lasers covers the entire field of optoelectronics and has become the core technology of today's optoelectronics science. Due to the advantages of small size, simple structure, low input energy, long life, easy modulation and low price, semiconductor lasers are widely used in the field of optoelectronics and have been highly valued by countries all over the world.

The transmission distance of the optical module refers to the distance over which the optical signal can be directly transmitted without relay amplification. It is divided into three types: short-distance, medium-distance, and long-distance. Generally speaking, 2km and below are short distances, 10-20km are medium distances, and 30km, 40km and above are long distances. Optical modules of different wavelengths with different optical fibers correspond to different transmission distances.
