Laser Diodes & Sources
Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode
The SWFD serial fiber coupled laser features high power and kink-free operation. It is based on semiconductor on special InAs/GaAs structure having maximum output power of about 700mW and a built-in power monitor for precision power control as well as TEC cooling for wavelength stability. They are available with single mode or polarization maintaining fiber. It is designed for Bismuth Doped Fiber Amplifier (BDFA) pumping. A heat sink is required to remove the heat preventing damage. We offer driving electronics to precisely control both the output power and temperature (wavelength)

System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Optical interface and fiber
- Fiber Type: Hi1060, PM980 · Fiber Buffer: 900µm Tube
- Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
- Wavelength and loss budget
- Wavelength: 1200nm
- Check the Laser Diodes & Sources passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
- Control interface
- Driver: No, Yes
- Match supply voltage, analog or digital command range, connector pinout and default optical state to the instrument interlock. Confirm the unpowered state explicitly — it decides what happens to the link on a power failure.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode
Which fiber and connector does the Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode use?
Fiber Type: Hi1060, PM980 · Fiber Buffer: 900µm Tube. Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
How should the Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode be included in an optical power budget?
Wavelength: 1200nm. Check the Laser Diodes & Sources passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
Does the Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode require a controller?
Driver: No, Yes. Match supply voltage, analog or digital command range, connector pinout and default optical state to the instrument interlock. Confirm the unpowered state explicitly — it decides what happens to the link on a power failure.
