F-EDF and EDF-Tx Erbium Doped Fibers |
F-EDF erbium doped fibers provide the basic building block to fiber optic amplifiers used in broadband optical networks and CATV applications in the 1550nm fiber optic transmission window. These erbium doped fibers deliver gain efficiencies in excess of 3.5 dB/mW when pumped with a 980nm laser diode.
The EDF-T3 C-band erbium doped fiber provides low splice loss, high strength enhanced overlap integrals and pumping at 980nm and 1480 nm. The EDF-T6 is optimized for use in L-Band EDFAs and provides high erbium peak absorption levels and low background loss. The EDF-T9 C-Band erbium doped fiber provides excellent efficiency, low spice losses and low OH content. The EDF-Tx family features low background loss and excellent uniformity. |
Fibercore Ytterbium-Doped Double-Clad Fibers and Matching Fibers for Advanced Fiber Laser Applications |
F-CP1100 Ytterbium doped, cladding-pump laser fiber employs Fibercore's quasi polygonal, sinusoidal fabrication technology. The unique construction of the F-CP1100 provides greatly improved reliability and power handling capabilities. Also, to enable you to utilize this fiber to its full potential, Newport offers Fibercore's F-SMM900 dual clad fiber. The NA of the F-SMM900 multimode core is matched to that of F-CP1100 and the singlemode NA is 0.19 which also matches the doped core of F-CP1100. The F-SMM900 is ideal for manufacturing WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) devices or combiners for pump and signal combination in high power, cladding-pump lasers and amplifiers. |
StockerYale Ytterbium-Doped Double-Clad Fibers and Matching Fibers for Advanced Fiber Laser Applications |
F-YDC-1100-8/230 ytterbium doped double clad fiber provides high slope efficiency, high-adhesion low index polymer outer cladding and superior humidity performance. These are ideal for use in moderate power fibers lasers, such as those typically used in laser marking applications. To compliment this fiber we also offer the F-PD-200 pump delivery fiber from StockerYale. The F-PD-200 provides a multimode guide for pump delivery with a high NA, low index polymer cladding and superior humidity performance. Also available from the same manufacturer is matching photosensitive double-clad fiber (model F-PSDC-1100-8/200, see Photosensitive Fiber for Fiber Gratings) to write fiber Bragg gratings to create laser cavities. |
Corning Ytterbium-Doped Double-Clad Fibers |
The F-YDC-1100-C double cladding Ytterbium doped single mode fiber is manufactured with Corning's outside vapor deposition process which offers superb consistency. They also have all glass cladding, high reliability, low background loss, high slope efficiency and high numerical aperture. |
Erbium-Ytterbium Co-doped Fiber |
Newport also introduces F-DF1500Y Erbium-Ytterbium Co-doped optical fiber. The key features of the F-DF1500Y are an exceptionally high ytterbium concentration and its patented, phosphorous-doped core. The ytterbium level creates a very broad and intense pump-band-enabling the use of a wide range of high power pump sources. The phosphate host-glass of the core facilitates efficient energy transfer from the ytterbium ions to the erbium ions to produce the desired output within the 1550nm window. |
Neodymium Doped Fiber |
Newports F-DF1000 Singlemode Neodymium Doped Fiber is the ideal fiber for an introduction to fiber laser technology. It offers a very low lasing threshold with output wavelength depending on configuration but typically in the region of 1080 nm to 1100 nm. Low-cost 780 nm to 820 nm laser diodes can be used as the pump source to build a fiber laser. |
