Large Mode Area Photonic Crystal Fibers for High-Power Applications
Explore NKT Photonics' Large Mode Area photonic crystal fibers, designed for diffraction-limited high-power delivery. These fibers offer endlessly single-mode operation, low nonlinearities, and low fiber loss across a wide range of wavelengths.
Our Large Mode Area photonic crystal fibers are designed for diffraction-limited high-power delivery. The large mode area prevents nonlinear effects and material damage.
With standard fibers, you trade large mode areas for single-mode operation. With our Large Mode Area fibers, you get single-mode operation in a wide range of wavelengths.
Key Features
Endlessly single-mode operation
Handles high powers
Low nonlinearities
Low fiber loss
Wavelength-independent MFD
Core sizes from 5 to 25 microns

With standard technology, you trade large mode areas for single-mode operation. But our crystal fiber Large Mode Area fibers provide single-mode operation in a wide wavelength range.
If you want more details about how to handle optical fibers: Strip, cleave, and couple them, we have some application notes for you.
Optical fibers require proper handling to ensure a long lifetime and prevent fiber breaking. Read this guideline to learn how to handle optical fiber to keep both fiber and operator safe.
Read this application note if you would like to learn how to handle our optical fibers, e.g., including how to strip the protective coating, how to cleave the fibers, and how to couple light to and from the fibers.
