Applications:

For FBGs which select and stabilize lasing wavelengths in fiber lasers

Providing a photosensitive single mode core within a double clad structure, the PSDC-1100-8/200 is intended for the fabrication of fiber Bragg gratings that select and stabilize the lasing wavelength of fiber lasers. The PSDC-1100-8/200 is designed for use in conjunction with StockerYale's YDC-1100-8/230 Yb-doped fiber. Our low-index high-adhesion polymer serves as the outer cladding of the PSDC-1100- 8/200, providing an NA of 0.48.
