An optical amplifier includes a photodetector such as a photodiode for receivingan optical input signal to be amplified. An electro-absorption modulator is responsive to a photocurrent generated by the photodetector such that the modulator absorbs a portion of an optical beam transmitted therethrough in an amount proportional to an amplified replica of the photocurrent. The remaining portion of the beam transmitted through the modulator forms a signal that is an inverted, amplified replica of the input signal.
