Laser beams can be flexibly transmitted to any point via optical fibers. The greatest challenge is efficiently coupling the light into and out of the fiber; it is absolutely necessary to collimate the laser beam during output coupling.
To make this process as simple as possible, we developed focusable fiber optic collimators, which are manufactured in Germany. Available in two diameters (11.5 mm and 19 mm), these collimators are suited for the following fibers: step-index fibers with a numerical aperture of NA=0.22, single-mode fibers, CO2 fibers with a core diameter of 750 µm or 1000 µm.
These collimators consist of lens systems that are coated for different wavelength ranges. Choose any of the standard wavelengths 350-700 nm, 650-1050 nm, 1050-1060 nm, or 10.6 µm.
Furthermore, the focal length of the system can also be selected. Depending on the application, the beam diameter requirements are very different. The correlation between beam diameter and operating distance can be taken from the datasheet.
All collimators can be equipped for the following connector systems: SMA, FC wide key, FC small key, FC/APC wide key, and FC/APC small key. Other connectors are available upon request.
