Highly Nonlinear Fibers 1060 nm fibers

DESCRIPTION
This single-mode nonlinear photonic crystal fiber combines
a high nonlinear coefficient with zero dispersion
around 975 nm to allow efficient nonlinear interactions
using 1060 nm range lasers.
The fiber is designed for high power ps pumped supercontinuum
generation. Due to the optimized dispersion
profile, a length of only 10-15 m of this fiber is sufficient
to generate octave spanning spectra when pumped with
high power ps sources.
The fiber is available spliced to standard single mode
fiber or endlessly single mode fiber, and is also available
with hermetically sealed ends and FC/PC connectors.
