The laser may include a seeder (106, a first fiber amplifier (110) pumped by a laser diode(108), the mode expander isolator (124) and a second fiber amplifier (116) pumped by a laser diode (112), the mode expander isolator preventing back-reflected light from the second fiber amplifier to reach the first fiber amplifier.

    摘要: Exemplary apparatus and method can be availed for providing at least one electromagnetic radiation. For example, it is possible to provide at least one first electromagnetic radiation having a frequency that changes over time with a first characteristic period. Further, with at least one hardware arrangement, it is possible to receive and modify the first electromagnetic radiation(s) into at least one second electromagnetic radiation having a frequency that changes over time with a second characteristic period. The second characteristic period can be smaller than the first characteristic period. The hardware arrangement(s) can include a resonant cavity having a round-trip propagation time for the first electromagnetic radiation(s) that can be approximately the same as the first characteristic period.

    摘要: An optical transmitter includes an optical isolator that includes a Faraday rotator transmitting light output from a light source, and has a first state in which the light is transmitted through the optical isolator when a first magnetic field is applied to the Faraday rotator, and a second state in which the amount of the light transmitted through the optical isolator is less than that in the first state when a second magnetic field different from the first magnetic field is applied to the Faraday rotator; a junction to which an optical transmission medium into which the light output from the optical isolator is input is connected; a magnetic-field generator that selectively applies the first magnetic field or the second magnetic field to the Faraday rotator; and a switching unit that switches the magnetic-field generator to the second state when the optical transmission medium is not connected to the junction.

    摘要: A fiber optic collimator system, a fiber optic collimator array, and a fiber optic collimator array system, which can reduce difficulty in an alignment process, minimize a coupling loss, and prevent the optical characteristics from deteriorating.
    An optical fiber is fused to one end of a GRIN lens made of quartz glass containing one or more selected from Sb 2 O 3 , Ta 2 O 5 , TiO 2 and ZrO 2 as a refractive index regulating substance, to form an optical fiber with a GRIN lens. Since an adhesive is not used, the core alignment of the GRIN lens and the optical fiber can be facilitated by a self alignment effect without deteriorating the optical characteristics. Moreover, the coupling loss is remarkably reduced by appropriately setting a refractive index distribution constant g of the GRIN lens. By fabricating the fiber optic collimator system, the fiber optic collimator array, the fiber optic collimator array system using the optical fiber with a GRIN lens can reduce the difficulty in the core alignment process, minimize the coupling loss, and prevent the optical characteristics from deteriorating.

    摘要: Fiber lasers for producing Band I wavelengths include a laser cavity having an optical fiber with specific parameters in length and thickness and doping concentration, and having high reflectivities. Examples show the feasibility of producing such fiber lasers. Fiber lasers for producing Band IV wavelengths include a depolarized laser oscillator, at least one amplifier and a polarizer. Depolarized laser oscillator is an inherently depolarized CW laser, or a depolarized laser diode, which is depolarized by a depolarizer. Additional fiber lasers in accordance with embodiments of the present invention include a double clad active optical fiber having a pump power entry point for sending pump energy through the active optical fiber in a first direction, and a loop portion at a second end of the fiber for sending pump energy through the active optical fiber in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction. A system for coupling light into a fiber in accordance with embodiments of the present invention include a first fiber, a second double clad fiber, and a bulk optic component positioned between the first and second fibers. A mode stripper included within the second fiber allows for removal of high power light which is propagated through the outer clad rather than launched into the core of the second fiber.
