Femtosecond Pulsed Fiber Laser with High Average Output Power

04 October 2007

Calmar introduces a new femtosecond pulsed fiber laser FPL-05 series to the market. The laser provides up to 5 W high average output power and 1 MW peak power, to the end users.

FPL-05 consists of a master laser source and a freespace based pulse compressor. The operation is a simple plug -and-play, with no need of cooling.

FPL-05 is a passively mode locked fiber laser that generates optical pulses with a pulsewidth less than 0.3 ps. The repetition rate is pre-selectable in the range of 10 ~ 50 MHz and the wavelength covers 1550 nm and 1064 nm bands.

FPL-05 is simple and intuitive to operate. The operation is turn-key based and requires no external RF source or warm-up.

The optional synchronization output frequency can be the fundamental or harmonics of the repetition rate of the laser. In addition, the laser pulses can be phase-locked to an external RF clock or another laser source with very low timing jitter by implementing our proprietary PLL technology.

FPL-05 is a versatile optical source. The laser is ideal for optical nonlinearity study, biomedical imaging and treatment, seed laser of ultra high output power laser, terahertz radiation, and material processing.
