Co-doped Optical Fiber, Erbium-Ytterbium

The F-DF1500Y is single mode (SM) Erbium (Er) and Ytterbium (Yb) co-doped fiber, providing extremely high levels of pump absorption and emission around the telecoms C and L band windows. The fiber can be used for lower power fiber lasers, pre-amplifiers and Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) light sources. The high absorption is ideal for applications requiring short gain lengths, for example femtosecond mode-locked ring lasers.
The mixture of Erbium and Ytterbium extends the 915nm pump absorption band to 980nm with a relatively flat absorption rate until the 980nm peak. This allows low cost, non-stabilized 940nm pumps to be used where variations in the pump wavelength with temperature will have a much smaller effect on the output power than pumping at 980nm.
This bare fiber does not include a protective fiber jacket. Standard pricing is per meter. The following volume discount schedule is applied when ordering continuous lengths of optical fiber: 10 - 49 m: 15%, 50 - 99 m: 22%, 100 - 499 m: 25%, and ≥ 500 m: 28%.
