Buying Raman Amplifiers

Top-level product categories: lasers and laser amplifiers, various devices

More general product categories: optical amplifiers

Related product categories: Raman lasers, Raman crystals

Raman amplifiers use Raman amplification in optical fibers to provide gain in spectral regions where there are no suitable amplifier transitions. This technology is valuable for extending the range of fiber-optic communication systems.

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

Purchasing involves a lot of responsibility. 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.

Our article on best practices for purchasing gives you valuable insights.

1. Understand the technical background

It is important to sufficiently understand the technology before buying.

Use the comprehensive resources of RP Photonics:

If you need personal help, contact RP Photonics to get technical consultancy.

2. Define your requirements

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

We recommend that you develop a list of clear specifications according to your specific needs, against which you can later check the suitability of found product offers:

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

This list is for your own preparation, and can later (possibly in modified form) be used for quotation requests to suppliers.

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

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

3. Find suitable suppliers

We suggest three steps:

  • Below, you can find our list of suppliers for Raman amplifiers. 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.

Raman amplifiers

Our new highly reliable Raman fiber amplifiers are based on patented new technology. With their high power up to 30 W the amplifiers cover the wavelength range from 1120 to 1370 nm that is not accessible by Yb or Er fiber amplifiers. With a tuning range of 10 nm and a relative intensity noise <1% r.m.s., TOPTICA offers its own portfolio of RFAs that can be seamlessly integrated with TOPTICA lasers as seeders and frequency converters to reach visible and UV wavelengths.
