The high power dual stage PM isolator (1064/1030/980/915/850/808/780nm polarization-maintaining fiber optic isolator) is one of the most important passive components in fiber optic systems. It permits the flow of optical power in just one direction (the forward direction). At the same time, by using PM panda fibers it maintains a well-defined state of polarization (SOP) of the light. Applications include protection of a transmitting laser diode from back reflections. Such reflections increase the noise in the system by disrupting the diode’s operation. The dual stage PM Isolator (1064nm, 1030nm, 980nm, 915nm, 850nm, 808nm, 780nm) also improves the stability of PM fiber amplifiers by minimizing the possibility of feedback, which causes unwanted oscillations in such devices.

Applications of High Power Dual-Stage PM Isolator (1064nm, 1030nm, 980nm, 915nm, 850nm, 808nm, 780nm)

The 1064/1030/980/915/850/808/780nm high power dual-stage PM isolators (1064nm, 1030nm, 980nm, 915nm, 850nm, 808nm, 780nm; double/multistage fiber optic isolator) are used in a wide variety of applications within optical systems. In most applications, laser light is sent to the device under test via various optical components. Therefore, back reflections (return lights) always occur in the various parallel optical surfaces and the end faces of the connectors, splices and other optical components. These unwanted back reflections have a destabilizing effect on the oscillation of the laser source and on the operation of fiber-optic amplifiers, thus resulting in poor transmission performance in the data lines. Lfiber’s 1064/1030/980/915/850/808/780 nm dual-stage PM Isolators are used to block the back reflections.

Notes:

  • The high power dual stage PM isolator is customizable, and the above specifications are subject to change without notice.
  • For CW high-power optical interconnection, we recommend fusion splice without connectors.
  • For device with connectors, IL is 0.3dB higher, RL is 5.0dB lower, ER is 2.0dB lower.
  • Unless otherwise specified, the slow axis of the fiber is aligned with the key of the PM fiber connector.
  • Slow axis working and fast axis blocked as standard, while operating on both slow and fast axis available on request.
  • Bare fiber should not support the weight of the connector. So that if any connectors needed, for the pigtail type it’s better to choose the 900μm loose tube jacket instead of the 250μm bare fiber.
  • For product customization or special requirements, please contact Lfiber’s sales department for availability.

About Axis Alignment of the High Power Dual Stage PM Fiber Optical Isolator

  • “Slow axis working and fast axis blocked” means that light on just the slow axis is transmitted and the fast axis light is blocked in the forward direction; Both the slow and fast axis light are blocked on the backward direction.
  • “Both axis working” means that both the slow and fast axis light are transmitted in the forward direction, both the slow and fast axis light are blocked in the backward direction.
