BSR FiberMax™ Fiber Coupled Lasers Diodes

Incomparable Output Power and Brightness

Blue Sky Research is a world leading expert in precision fiber coupling for a large range of laser diodes, from IR to violet. Based on its proprietary technology, the FiberMax® (FMXL) provides excellent coupling efficiency and stability in a cost-effective package. The thermally stable design of the FMXL is highly reliable and field-proven with hundreds of thousands of units operating in demanding applications. Standard FiberMax® laser components are available for quick delivery with common features: high performance laser diodes coupled into a single mode PM fiber with an FC/PC connector.

Key Features:

  • Lasers: 405, 450, 488, 520, 638, 658, 785, 830nm
  • High coupling efficiency
  • Highly reliable, +10,000 hrs. laser lifetime
  • PM fiber standard, single & multimode options
  • Collimation and Relay optics options available

 

The unique properties of optical fibers reduce optical system complexity and enables lower cost. System performance can be optimised while using cost effective fiber for light relay and beam shaping. A single mode fiber creates a near perfect Gaussian beam without introducing aberrations. In addition, optical fibers maintain beam pointing tolerances throughout temperature variations better than all traditional optics, enabling a robust and stable system performance over wide operation conditions.

Specifications of Standard FiberMax® 

Standard FiberMax® products comprise one fiber-coupled laser, a 1-meter PM single mode fiber with a 900µm PVC buffered jacket and an FC/PC connector. Each FiberMax® is shipped with individual laser characteristics/data.
