L-Band Reduced Clad Erbium-Doped Single-Mode Fiber

Nufern high performance L-Band Erbium-doped fibers are designed for use in L-band amplifiers and compact ASE sources. The 80 μm version is a reduced-cladding fiber ideal for small form-factor devices. All Nufern erbium-doped fibers are fabricated with a proprietary doping technology and have highly consistent and reproducible spectroscopy, ensuring intra-lot and lot-to-lot uniformity. These fibers are extensively characterized and accompanied by lot specific data.
Applications
  • L-band amplifiers
  • Compact ASE sources
  • Small form factor packages
Features & Benefits
  • Highly consistent and reproducible spectroscopy — no need to batch matching GFFs
  • Excellent core concentricity — low splice loss
  • Detailed lot-specific characterization data — compatible with modeling programs
