LEONI laser cables Overview laser cables Two key parameters of laser systems are necessary to select the appropriate fiber cable. At first, the laser beam quality defines the minimum core diameter Also, the maximum average power depends on the coupling and the numerical aperture of the optical fiber. Secondly, the laser conditions between laser system and optical fiber, in the case of average power has to be taken into account to select the connec- optimum coupling 100% of the laser power is coupled into the tor type. Due to reflection losses at the fiber-to-air interface inside fiber core. Therefore,...

6 LEONI laser cables Step-index multimode Business Units Fiber Optics' Step-Index multimode fibers with a fused silica core are the material of choice for laser beam transmission. The low OH content and the uniform refractive index guarantees low beam distortion and low absorption in the VIS-IR wavelength range of 400 nm-2400 nm. The cladding consists of fluorine-doped fused silica and defines the beam-guiding properties and the numerical aperture of the fiber. The standard numerical aperture is 0.22, other apertures are available on request. Tailored to the various applications the fibers are...
