Abstract
A multistage amplifier based on stimulated counter-running scattering was proposed and experimentally realized. It allowed us to bring the c haracteristics of a counter-running amplifier closer to those of a co- running one. It is shown that in a two-stage amplifier with a total ga in increment of 20 and the input signal equal to 10(-5) of the pump in tensity, one can obtain the gain approximately 10(5) and transformatio n efficiency approximately 0.95.
