L-Mount: 60 watts of power for 200 µm fiber
At first glance the visitors at LASER World of Photonics China will probably not notice anything. Talk is of a new version of the L-Mount fiber-coupled diode laser module which LIMO Lissotschenko Mikrooptik GmbH of Dortmund will display in Shanghai (booth #W1.1231). "With its 60 watts our newcomer delivers very high output for the very small fiber diameter of 200 micrometers", Dipl.-Ing. (FH) Andre Gruetz (Director of Photonics & Medical Solutions) explains. "It must be the smallest standard device of its type with such a high output from a 200 µm fiber core".
The compact module is smaller than a compact digital camera (dimensions including connections: 109 mm in length, 25 mm in width, 20 mm in height): It is engineered for wavelengths 976 and 981 nm and is particularly suited for pumping solid-state and fiber lasers. The new L-Mount system also offers a number of new features: The Dortmund company supplies the module, for example, with an protection filter which protects the chip in the L-Mount from destruction by any reflected external beams from a pumped laser system. The L-Mount is also available as what is known as a "cladding mode free" (CMF) version.
"The light is only directed within the actual core and not in the fiber cladding", Gruetz explains. The Westphalian company also increases the quality of the beam with a volume holographic grating (VHG) which reduces the deviation of the L-Mount laser beams from the set wavelength from more or less two nanometers to less than one nanometer. LIMO also supplies the precise, high-performance laser as an open beam module (maximum power: 70 watts) which does not have a fiber connection but emits a rectangular laser beam of ten by five millimeters via a window.
