High-Power Solid-State Lasers

LIEKKI™ PUMP AND SIGNAL COMBINERS

LIEKKI™ (6+1)x1 pump and signal combiners are used to combine the power from six multimode laser pump diodes and couple it with a signal feed. The combined power can be used for high-power fiber amplifier and laser applications in industrial, military, medical and communications. The devices offer efficient power transfer with a maximum conservation of brightness.

LIEKKI™ combiners are available in a variety of pump and signal fiber geometries. Their fiber design provides reliable delivery of high-power levels. LIEKKI™combiners are optically matched with LIEKKI™ ytterbium fibers.
