Description
nLIGHT will develop a novel fused fiber combiner capable of accepting standard-sized active fibers. This"over-sleeve"combiner is designed to leave the active fiber undisturbed, allowing for counter propagation pumping of the laser amplifier, while efficiently coupling multiple kilowatts of power into the active fiber.
