An organic substance like olive oil may act as a photonic liquid crystal (PLC). Because of its outstanding nonlinear optical characteristics, it is a well accepted way for improving system quality when utilized as an optical amplifier based on stimulated Raman scattering gain. A large mode area (LMA) photonic crystal fibre (PCF) was employed to increase optical amplification of light. Olive oil is employed as the Raman active medium in two circumstances in this work. A pump ON/OFF optical gain method with an experimental set up was created to evaluate this technology and a 405 nm diode pumped laser was used with two signal lasers of 650 and 808 nm. Raman gain was determined and the best fibre length has been established to produce a highest gain and maximum signal power of 650 nm for a with large mode areas.
