Gooch & Housego’s FFS-X series of single mode (SM) fiber couplers split or combine light in the visible or (near) infrared regions. The couplers utilize Gooch & Housego’s (G&H) low-loss fused fiber technology. No light leaves the fiber, therefore no alignment is required and there are no unwanted reflections. Furthermore, the output fiber pigtails may be directly integrated into beam delivery systems.

Visible Wavelength SM Fiber Couplers:
Within the FFS-xxxxxxxxx series of visible wavelength fiber couplers, versions optimized for any wavelength within the range of 450 to 700 nm may be selected. These couplers are designed for applications in display systems, sensors and biomedical equipment.

Near Infrared SM Fiber Couplers:
G&H’s FFS-xxxxxxxxx series of near infrared couplers splits light at any selected wavelength from 700 to 1199 nm. These couplers are designed for applications in fiber laser, sensor and avionics applications.

Ultra-low Ratio Tap SM Fiber Couplers:
G&H’s FFS-xxxxxxAxx series of ultra-low ratio tap couplers splits a very small amount of light from a signal path to a tap port. Suitable for very high optical power, its main application is in the monitoring of optical sources such as fiber lasers. Low tap ratios such as 0.1%, 0.01% or 0.001% enable the monitoring photodetector to operate without damage or saturation.

Gooch & Housego proprietary manufacturing technology provides ultra-low loss in the signal path, thereby maximizing optical power handling. Consistently high return loss (>55 dB) reduces the amount of optical power reflected back along the input fiber. This helps the fiber laser operate in a stable manner. Standard ultra-low ratio parts are available for wavelengths from 700 to 1599 nm. For other wavelengths, coupling ratios or customized fiber types please contact AMS Technologies.

FFW-X SM Pump Signal WDMs
Gooch & Housego’s FFW-X single mode (SM) fused pump signal wavelength division multiplexers (WDMs) are used for multiplexing signal and pump power in erbium-doped power amplifiers, pumped by wavelengths from 960 to 1480 nm. Gooch & Housego (G&H) proprietary manufacturing technology provides uniquely low excess loss, along with low polarization and temperature dependence for all ports. The ultra-low loss of these components promotes high efficiency of use of pump power and low noise figure. These high-performance parts are available in many wavelength configurations, fiber and connector options, with standard as well as subminiature packages. They can therefore be readily specified in a wide variety of applications, enabling rapid design cycles and new project builds. Fused Pump Signal WDMs 980 nm (FFW-xxxxx2xxx):G&H’s FFW-xxxxx2xxx series of fused pump signal WDMs, 980 nm, multiplex signal and pump power in 980, 960 or 1060 nm-pumped erbium-doped fiber amplifiers. Wavelength configurations allow for 960, 980 or 1060 nm pumping and C, L or C+L signal bands. Reliability is assured through qualification to Telcordia GR-1221, with a field proven FIT rate of <1. Fused Pump Signal WDMs 1480 nm (FFW-3xxxx21xx):The Gooch & Housego FFW-3xxxx21xx series of fused pump signal WDMs, 1480 nm, multiplex signal and pump power in 1480 nm-pumped erbium-doped fiber amplifiers. Wavelength configurations are 1480 nm – C band and 1480 nm – L band. Subminiature Pump Signal WDMs (FFW-5x1xx2xx0):G&H’s FFW-5x1xx2xx0 series of subminiature pump signal WDMs provide low-loss multiplexing of pump and signal in an ultra-short 32 mm length package. Designed for space-constrained optical amplifiers, the product is manufactured using ø80 µm cladding fiber. This enables low fiber bend radius without compromising mechanical integrity. Standard wavelengths of operation are based on 980 nm pumping and C, L or C+L signal bands. However, many other wavelength combinations are available for diverse requirements such as sensing, fiber lasers and fiber Gyros. Do not hesitate to contact AMS Technologies with your specific requirements. Reliability is assured through qualification to Telcordia GR-1221.
