Request InfoNewport - New FocusA hybrid device that provides the dual functionality of a polarization beam combiner and an isolator has been released by New Focus Inc. The company says the iPBC permits the use of fewer or lower-power pump lasers for a more cost-effective network with higher capacity and longer reach. Specifically designed for high-power Raman and erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, the component combines the power from two pump lasers and provides isolation from destabilizing backreflected light. The iPBC operates over a wide wavelength range and accommodates a variety of pump lasers.See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaWEBINARSPhotonics.com 1/18/2018Fiberguide RARe Motheye Fiber: Random Anti-Reflective (RARe) Nanostructures on Optical Fibers as Replacement for AR CoatingsAnti-reflective (AR) coatings are now entering their second century and have remained virtually unchanged throughout their life.
