Soft-glass Fiber Modules for NIR/MIR High-power Lasers, Supercontinuum Sources and Sensing Applications

Original language description

This paper presents results from the development of soft-glass fiber modules for near- and mid-infrared applications. They can be utilized especially in applications such as high-power lasers, supercontinuum generation and spectroscopy. The technology of fiber processing, preparation and connectorization has been mastered in cooperation with SQS Fiber optics in the frame of joint cooperation in several co-running projects; the high-power lasers and supercontinuum generation is prepared with the IPE Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic. We have studied soft-glass fibers including chalcogenide arsenic-selenide, lead-silicate and zirconium-fluoride glass materials. Crucial optical signal factors for specific purposes such as operational wavelength, insertion-loss on the soft-glass-silica-glass boundaries, back-reflected optical power reduction to prevent lasing, power-induced heat generation issues and mode-field mismatch must be taken into account. Technological aspects then include bending radii, glass fragilities and glass toxicities. Results from laboratory measurements will be shown to verify the theoretical dispersion calculation. Results from technological tests of chalcogenide arsenic-selenide fiber module, lead-silicate microstructured fiber free-space optic coupling and zirconium-flouride glass processing challenges will be as well presented more in detail.
