NukW — Harnessing Power

Nufern's commitment to high-power active fibers and fiber integration has enabled us to deliver a kilowatt-level optical amplifier platform suitable for beam combining applications. NukW systems provide superior optical performance including single-mode beam quality, very high optical efficiency, and narrow linewidth. With remote diode pumping and electronics mounting, and beam delivery up to 10 meters, the integration possibilities for a NukW system offer unmatched flexibility.

Delivered as a complete turnkey unit ready for immediate installation and use, the NukW amplifier is enabling the next generation of high energy laser development. How would you like yours?
