Advanced photonic crystal fibers: redefining performance in modern photonics
Photonic crystal fibers, also known as microstructured fibers, leverage air hole structures to guide light, offering unique properties beyond traditional fiber designs. These fibers open up new possibilities for a variety of applications, including industrial and medical lasers, sensing technologies, and telecom transmissions. This innovative approach enables breakthroughs in performance, addressing the needs of cutting-edge technologies and industries.
Endlessly single-mode fibers
Designed for exceptional mode stability across a broad wavelength range of 400 nm to 1700 nm, these endlessly single-mode fibers do not exhibit a high-order mode cutoff. With options featuring visible-grade silica that enhance resistance to solarization and radiation, they are ideal for high-power visible light applications and precise single-mode light delivery.
Photonic Bandgap Hollow core fibers
Guiding optical signals through an air core, these fibers feature a microstructured region with a high air filling factor (>90%). With low bend sensitivity and minimal material nonlinearities, as over 95% of the optical power propagates in air, they provide excellent temperature immunity, making them ideal for high-performance sensing and metrology applications.
Anti-Resonant Hollow Core Fibers
Optical signals are guided through an air core surrounded by anti-resonant tube elements, minimizing power overlap in the silica. This design offers low material non-linearity, high damage thresholds, and ultra-low dispersion, making it ideal for low-latency data transmission, gas detection, and high-power pulse delivery.
Supercontinuum Photonic Crystal Fibers
Designed for efficient supercontinuum generation, these fibers combine low dispersion at pump wavelengths with a high numerical aperture, making them ideal for use with Ti-sapphire and YAG pulsed pump sources. Featuring a pure silica core and a small effective area, they provide high nonlinear coefficients and are optimized for pumping near 780 nm and 1060 nm, enabling a range of advanced applications from frequency comb generation to fiber gyroscopes.
Airclad fibers
Airclad fibers feature a pure silica core with a large diameter and ultra-high numerical aperture, making them ideal for power delivery and light collection in spectroscopy applications. Suitable for use across the visible to near-infrared range, they are engineered for enhanced performance in the most challenging environments.
