AFR's SteadiBeam® is the best Isolator designed for high power pulsed fiber lasers. Two versions of design are compatible with lasers of 100 W and 200 W respectively. Under multiple patented technologies, the SteadiBeam® isolator delivers unparalleled performance of aberration-free and thermal lensing-free beam quality at any output power level. It also provides high isolation for reflection coming from all spatial angles.
AFR high bandwidth zero-chirp F10 modulators are based on the Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) architecture. They are manufactured using the highly reliable titanium indiffusion technology in X-Cut, Y-Propagating LiNbO3 substrates. The F10 is a single drive modulator designed for high bit rate advanced metro to long haul communication systems that requires the superior performance. The F10 modulator contains an integrated photo detector that may be used to set and lock the DC bias on the modulator as well as provide an estimate of the modulator output optical power.
The 1064 nm Polarization Maintaining Isolator is a micro optics device with low insertion loss, high isolation, high return loss, high extinction ratio and excellent environmental stability and reliability. This fiber isolator is ideal for amplifiers, fiber lasers and test instrument applications.
The Isolator Polarization Beam Combiner/Splitter is a compact device that provides both polarization beam combining and optical isolation in one integrated component. The most common application is to combine two pump lasers into one single fiber to double the pump power in EDFA or Raman Amplifier. The Beam Combiner/Splitter has extremely low insertion loss, and it can improve the amplifier performance.
