II-VI Incorporated II-VI SUWTECH will introduce a new high power fiber laser pump module at Photonics West 2015.
II-VI's new high power fiber-coupled diode pump module platform will offer scalability for different power levels up to 300W with different emitter and fiber configurations (105µm and 200µm fiber core). With more emitters integrated, this single emitter based platform offers increased brightness.
The high brightness pump enables fiber laser manufacturers to generate higher pump power levels using fewer modules, allowing them to increase pump block efficiency, design more compact pump configurations, and simplify their packaging. A novel optical scheme delivers light into the fiber with high coupling efficiency, and a controlled under-filled NA along with a cladding mode stripping feature, which allows customers to increase reliability and reduce losses at the combiner. A compact housing offers superior thermal management. Integrated design and fewer components enable high volume with high manufacturing efficiency with high consistency in module-to-module performance.
II-VI also offers unique 300W per port Nx1 high power combiners with the modules together that can handle 300W per input port. High power Nx1 multimode combiners enable high efficiency combining of multiple high power pump sources into a single output fiber. Up to 31 input ports are available corresponding to multi-kilowatt power handling capability. All II-VI Photonics combiners conform to stringent environmental and mechanical standards to give high reliability and long lifetime for all field applications.
