Research abstract

This project is to develop low loss bi-directional fiber tap couplers for high power fiber laser systems with long term power handling beyond 1kW per channel, which can be integrated with a variety of fiber laser systems. In Phase II, we will further optimize our innovative technique developed in Phase I. We will further increase the diameter of the throughput fiber in the pulling area and reduce the insertion loss to ensure long term reliability. Approved for Public Release | 17-MDA-9219 (31 May 17)
