Frequently Asked Questions

The features of Fiber Collimators and Focusers - Receptacle Style include high power handling, rugged and compact design, low insertion loss, wide wavelength range of 200 - 2100 nm, wide range of beam diameters, availability of GRIN, aspheric, achromatic, plano-convex, and biconvex lenses, and versions for single mode, multimode, and polarization maintaining fibers.

The collimated beam diameter (BD) and full divergence angle (DA) of Fiber Collimators and Focusers - Receptacle Style depend upon the focal length of the lens (f), the core diameter (a), and the fiber numerical aperture (NA). The collimated beam characteristics are given by: BD(mm) = 2 x f(mm) x NA and DA(mrad) = a(µm) / f(mm).

The specifications of Fiber Collimators and Focusers - Receptacle Style include available wavelengths of 200 - 2100 nm, polarization extinction ratios of 20, 25, or 30dB, beam diameters of 0.2 to 22mm, spot size as small as <5 microns, wavefront distortion of λ/4 to λ/10, and insertion loss of ≤0.6 dB for 60mm separation.

The applications of Fiber Collimators and Focusers - Receptacle Style include fiber optic device packaging, source-to-fiber coupling, and fiber-to-detector coupling.

Fiber Collimators and Focusers - Receptacle Style are devices designed to collimate or focus light exiting a fiber to achieve a desired beam diameter or spot size.
