A laser amplifier, an optical system comprising such a laser amplifier and a method of forming such a laser amplifier for obtaining polarization independent amplification over a large wavelength region. The optical amplifier comprises an active region that is formed on a semiconductor substrate (6). The active layer has been formed through growing of quantum well layers (13, 14 15, 16) alternating with barrier layers (12). The well layers comprise well layers of a first type (14, 15, 16) having tensile strain together with or without well layers of a second type having compressive strain (13). At least one of the well layers of one type (16) has been grown to a different width and/or with a different material composition than the other well layers of the same type (14, 15).

L'invention porte sur un amplificateur à laser, sur un système optique le comprenant, et sur un procédé de réalisation dudit amplificateur à laser permettant d'obtenir une amplification indépendante de la polarisation sur une large plage de longueurs d'onde. L'amplificateur optique comprend une partie active formée sur un substrat à semi-conducteur (6). La couche active a été formée par croissance de couches de puits quantiques (13, 14, 15, 16) alternant avec des couches d'arrêt (12). Il existe un premier type de couches de puits (14, 15, 15) soumises à une contrainte de traction avec ou sans un deuxième type de couches de puits (13) soumises à une contrainte de compression. L'une au moins des couches de puits d'un type (16) diffère de celles du même type (14, 15) en ce qu'elle atteint une largeur différente ou est constituée d'un matériau différent.
