Laser Diodes & Sources
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)

Application context
Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.
Fiber Coupled Single Mode Laser Diode: Laboratory optical integration depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1200nm wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (Hi1060, PM980) must match the connected components.

Technical FAQ
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: 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.
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.
Share your wavelength, fiber type, connector, power handling and control requirements and we will qualify the matching configuration and part number.
