APPLICATION NOTE

FBG Reflectors for Raman Fiber Lasers

Written by Michel Bégin, M. Sc. A. | Product Line Manager - High Power Laser Components

June 2024 | Raman Fiber Lasers are increasingly used to achieve high-power output at specialized wavelengths that are rather challenging to address with rare earth doped fiber lasers. FBGs are important components of any Raman Fiber Lasers. FBG reflectors offer several advantages such as:

  • High wavelength accuracy
  • High reflectivity
  • High side mode suppression ratio (SMSR)
  • Low insertion loss
  • Custom wavelength available

The application note covers:

  • Raman fiber lasers
  • RFL configurations
  • FBGs for Raman fiber lasers
