Request InfoMicro Laser Systems Inc.Designed for use with single-mode polarization-maintaining fibers and fiber lasers, these collimators will generate a diffraction-limited beam with Gaussian profile at any distance along the path. Aperture sizes from 5 mm to 45 mm allow for beam sizes ranging from approximately 2 mm to 35 mm. Fine focus adjustment allows you to tune for your wavelength of use and obtain wavefront errors <1/10 wave. All collimators have receptacle for FC or FC/APC terminated fibers. Three wavelength regions cover the span from 370 nm to 1700 nm.
