5/130 Ytterbium-Doped Double Clad Fiber

Nufern’s general purpose Ytterbium-Doped Double-Clad Fiber is available in two-versions — PANDA-style, polarization-maintaining (PM) and non-PM. Designed specifically for CW applications around 1-15 W, these fibers are ideal for applications requiring low-cost fiber laser and amplifier source, such as laser marking, fiber amplifier pumps and IR sources for frequency doubling. These fibers’ telecom-type geometrics are compatible with readily available low-cost pump diodes and fiber-based components.

Applications
  • Laser marking
  • Fiber amplifier pumps
  • IR sources for frequency doubling
Features & Benefits
  • Low cost double-clad technology — Enables use of high power multimode pump diodes
  • Single-mode output — Compatiable with standard telecom 980/1060 nm fiber-based components
  • PANDA-style stress structure — Linearly polarized output for frequency conversion
