Due to Launch in 2009 Fibre Coupled AOM The new Fibre Coupled AOM is designed for use in pulsed fibre laser amplifier systems, achieving optimum performance in demanding applications such as material processing. Further information about the Fibre Coupled AOM will be available from the Gooch & Housego booth (#715) at Photonics West Exhibition, San Jose, CA, USA on 27th - 29th January 2009. The Fibre Q takes fibre-coupled acousto-optics to a new level, offering a high reliability, rugged and compact hermetically sealed package. The device is optimised to achieve low insertion loss with high extinction ratio and optical power handling. This has been achieved through the development of a new manufacturing platform combining the group's world renowned capabilities in both acousto-optics and fibre packaging. This new generation of fibre coupled acousto-optic modulator has been designed to meet the needs of today's more demanding requirements, it is significantly smaller and more robust than existing products. The enhancement of our fibre coupled acousto-optic range further strengthens the Gooch and Housego product offering in a number of sectors including the high power fibre laser market.
