Tapered Amplifier for MOPA Setups

1540 to 1590 nm, 2000 mW, Passive Cooling

InP-based tapered amplifiers are used for the amplification of an existing seed laser. The seed power between 30 mW and 60 mW can be amplified up to nearly diffraction-limited power values of 2000 mW. Such a setup is called MOPA (Master Oszillator Power Amplifier) . The rear facet and the front facet are both provided with an anti-reflection coating of less than 0.01% to avoid laser action of the amplifier chip itself. Tapered amplifiers and lasers can be used for free space optical communication, sensing, and athmospheric or automotive LiDAR.
