Here we describe various types of mounts for SMA or ST terminated single core fibers. We offer 3 types of mounts:
• Rod Mounted Holders
• Flanged Mounted Holders
• Laser to Fiber Couplers
Rod Mounted Holders
These simple rod mounts hold an SMA or ST terminated fiber atop an optical rod. The rod is not included. The thin profile lets you place the fiber face close to a detector or sample.
Flanged Mounts for Single Fibers
Use one of these mounts to couple a single fiber directly to an Oriel® Light Source, Detector or Integrating Sphere. They have a 1.5 Inch Series light tight flange.
Laser to Fiber Coupler
This fiber coupler uses an achromatic GRIN lens to focus a 400 to 900 nm TEM00 laser beam into a single fiber. One end has a 1-32 external thread to screw to a laser head; the other has an SMA connector to couple to the fiber. The focus of the lens is at its end; the fiber is screwed in until it butts against the lens. The coupler has a tilt plate mechanism. Tilting the lens and fiber plate with respect to the beam causes the focused spot to move across the fiber end for precise positioning at the fiber core.
