LMA-YDF-20/400-M Plus, Ultra Matched Yb-Doped Double Clad Optical Fiber

Product image of LMA-YDF-20/400-M Plus, Ultra Matched Yb-Doped Double Clad Optical Fiber

Coherent Ultra Matched (M+) Large Mode Area (LMA) active double clad fibers are designed for high power monolithic fiber lasers and amplifiers used in defense, industrial, and medical applications. Featuring a 20 µm core diameter and a 400 µm cladding diameter, these fibers ensure ultra-high precision matching with their passive counterparts, providing low splice loss and excellent performance. The NuCOAT fluoroacrylate coating enhances durability, ensuring consistent operation under extreme conditions. These fibers support high power levels while maintaining superior beam quality.
