Where to Buy Optical Amplifiers

Optical amplifiers are devices for amplifying light beams in free space or as guided waves, the latter mostly in fibers. They can be based on the laser principle or on nonlinear processes. These devices are essential in many optical communication and laser applications.

Before You Buy: Learn About Optical Amplifiers

With its comprehensive resources, RP Photonics helps you to well prepare purchase decisions:

Some aspects to consider before buying optical amplifiers: gain efficiency, noise figure, wavelength range, thermal management, optical quality, alignment, mounting options, environmental stability, durability, maintenance requirements.

Thanks to their high rare-earth solubility (up to 100,000 ppm) and low phonon energy, LVF fluoride fibers offer dozens of active transitions, enabling a broad range of applications from visible to the mid-infrared, one of which is amplification. For example, LVF praseodymium and thulium doped fibers are used for amplification at 1.3 µm and 1.47 µm respectively. LVF doped fibers for amplification are available as single-mode fiber or double cladding fiber.

Le Verre Fluoré will soon offer laser and amplifier fiber modules. The required fiber will be integrated in a robust housing and connectorized with FC/PC, FC/APC, SMA or custom connectors depending on customer need: this is a plug-and-play module.

Depending on specific needs, modules might include single-mode or multimode splices between fluoride fibers or between silica and fluoride fibers.
