Fiber Optics
- fiber lasers (experience with broad range of fiber gain media)
- fiber amplifiers: with laser or Raman gain, ASE, noise figure, etc.
- light propagation in optical fibers:
e.g. calculation of modal properties, data transmission, soliton formation, soliton splitting, optical power delivery, supercontinuum generation in microstructure fibers - novel types of optical fiber, e.g. photonic crystal fibers (microstructure fibers)
The available competence on fiber optics at RP Photonics is demonstrated in many ways:
- Dr. Paschotta has published many scientific papers, the SPIE Field Guide to Optical Fiber Technology, and the Encyclopedia of Laser Physics and Technology.
- He has developed the RP Fiber Power software, a powerful and extremely flexible tool for modeling the power conversion in fiber amplifiers and lasers. Also, he has made the RP ProPulse software, suitable for simulating the pulse formation in ultrafast fiber lasers.
More details on fiber optics know-how at RP Photonics are given in the Powerpoint presentation Fiber_devices.ppt.
