Buying Large Mode Area Fibers

large mode area fibers

Top-level product category: fiber optics

More general product categories: fibers

Related product categories: large-core fibers, double-clad fibers, triple-clad fibers, fiber optics

Optical fibers with particularly large mode areas are useful for high-power fiber amplifiers and lasers, as they have reduced nonlinear effects. These fibers allow for the efficient transmission of high-power laser light with minimal distortion.

Making Good Purchase Decisions

RP Photonics helps you to not only to find all relevant suppliers, but also to make good purchasing decisions.

NEW: Structured Decision Process

We recommend that you apply best practice by using the following structured process: Go through the following expandable sections, complete the form and finally come to a purchase decision. You can then print that to a PDF for documenting the process.

(Various further improvements of this feature will come soon.)

1. Learn about the technology

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

2. Define your requirements

It is important to fully understand and define your requirements before you buy.

We recommend that for your preparation and for inquiries to suppliers, you draw up a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs:

To help you, we have already listed some aspects we recommend you consider when buying large mode area fibers. Of course, there may be other aspects that are relevant to your specific case.

Otherwise, you will need to talk to your technical colleagues.

If you check this, the criteria will be inserted into the inquiry mail if below you use a button titled "Get quotation".

If you cannot sufficiently clarify your requirements, you may want to get technical consultancy from RP Photonics.

3. Find suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for large mode area fibers. Use the checkboxes to mark possibly suitable suppliers.
  • The selected suppliers will appear below this list, along with your list of specifications. You can then indicate which specifications they meet according to your research.
  • Based on the results, you can finally choose a supplier that is hopefully a good enough fit.

large mode area fibers

Our large mode area photonic crystal fibers are designed for diffraction-limited high-power delivery. The large mode area prevents nonlinear effects and material damage. With standard fibers, you trade large mode areas for single-mode operation. With our large mode area fibers, you get single-mode operation in a wide range of wavelengths. Also available in a polarization-maintaining version.
