Research abstract
A variety of ruggedized Lithium Niobate integrated optic devices are proposed. These devices are designed to support Coherent and Spectral Beam Combining high power fiber laser systems including high power handling phase and polarization control modules and high bandwidth phase modulators for Stimulated Brillouin Scattering suppression. A primary goal of the proposed work is reducing size weight and power by integrating multi-function devices into a compact array architecture to allow scalable devices to hundreds and even thousands of channels. In addition the devices will be designed for operation over an extended temperature range to support military field operation of high power fiber laser systems.
