IPS offers a full line of
pump lasers for fiber and solid state laser pumping applications.
Our unique spectrum stabilization technology allows us to "lock"
the laser so that the wavelength is always in the absorption band.
IPS's single frequency pumps offer high
power and are ultra-low noise - making them ideal sources for pumping
DFB fiber lasers. Utilizing a low noise, high SMSR pump in high performance
CW fiber lasers enables the realization of lower phase noise due to
reduced pump induced thermal fluctuation.
IPS's 6 W spectrum stabilized multi-mode
laser pumps provide wavelength locked pumping that remains "in
the band - all of the time" without the need for costly and complicated
temperature control. These sources eliminate the need for "binning"
of like wavelength pumps, and therefore are more cost effective for
use when total system integration costs are considered. But the most
important characteristic that these sources provide is the ability
to dramatically shorten the fiber length. By locking all of the power
in the absorption band, pump light is absorbed more rapidly and more
efficiently than traditional pump sources. This allows users to reduce
the number of pumps required AND reduce the length of fiber used.
In turn, this reduces the non-linear effects and aids in suppression
of SBS.
