Single-Mode Fiber Output Lasers

Image Single-Mode Optical Fiber Diagram ExampleWhat is Single-Mode Fiber?

Single-mode fibers (also single mode optical fiber, SMF, SM fiber, and monomode fiber) are designed to allow only one propagation mode (transverse mode) per polarization direction, retaining the fidelity of each light pulse over longer distances and providing higher bandwidth, when compared to multi-mode optical fibers.

Typically, a standard single-mode optical fiber has a relatively small core diameter between 8 and 10.5 µm, a cladding diameter of 125 µm, and a small difference in refractive index between the cladding and the core. Single-mode fibers are commonly comprised of a silica core and silica cladding, utilizing a step-index refractive index profile. The core, for example, would be doped to create the difference in index of refraction between the cladding and the core.

While the small core diameter does not allow for a great deal of power, it does allow only the primary transverse mode to be guided along the fiber. This primary mode subsequently travels down the fiber in an essentially straight line, and therefore, does not suffer from pulse spreading, which is common in multimode fiber because of varying path lengths. This allows for an increased bandwidth in a single-mode fiber, as the laser light travels the same distance at the same speed.

Another benefit, adding to the larger bandwidth, is the lack of intermodal dispersion in single-mode optical fibers. This fiber type is therefore able to transmit signals at longer distances while retaining the fidelity of each pulse of light when compared to multimode fibers. Single-mode fiber does suffer from some distortion of the signal. However, this distortion is mainly caused by chromatic dispersion and is very small compared to the modal dispersion inherent to multimode optical fiber. Furthermore, the utilization of the primary mode, along with higher wavelengths (≈ 1.3µm and ≈ 1.5µm) results in a low level of attenuation. The increased bandwidth, retained pulse fidelity, and low attenuation provides great benefits in optical fiber communication, for example, with high data rates transmitted over long distances.

Deeper Dive into Single-Mode Fiber Output Lasers

Multimode vs Single-Mode Lasers for Raman Spectroscopy

The first question you should ask yourself when considering which type of laser to choose is whether you are doing microscopy or bulk sampling.  If the answer to that question is microscopy, then you immediately should go with a single mode laser.  Since the goal of any microscopy system is to produce the highest resolution image possible, the number one consideration should be how tightly can the laser beam be focused down.  In optics, the M2 of a laser determines how small of a spot size can be achieved for a given microscope objective with an M2 of 1 being the best possible focus.  Even though a perfect M2 of 1 can never be physically achieved, open beam single mode diode lasers can typically have a M2 < 1.5 and single mode fiber-coupled diode lasers have an M2 »1.05.

HeNe Lasers vs Diode Lasers: HeNe Laser Pros and Cons

Despite of so many good intrinsic properties, HeNe lasers often do not meet the requirements of today’s industrial environments. Industrial production lines with 24/7 operation are all about robustness and long lifetime, thus industrial instrument manufacturers tend to pay 2 to 4 times more for a laser, which has a longer life-time, is easier to replace and maintain.

The price difference from HeNe lasers mainly depend on how many parameters of semiconductor lasers have to be close to the performance of HeNe. If one needs perfect beam quality, single-mode or polarization maintaining fiber has to be used to achieve <1.05 M2, nice round beam shape and diffraction limited divergence. Reasonably good central wavelength stability can by achieved by good temperature and power stabilization of the semiconductor emitter. Most difficult and expensive to achieve is the long coherence length requirement. Most popular way of ensuring high coherence length and very stable (<5 pm) central wavelength is to apply external cavity designs (ECDL – external cavity diode laser) by using volume Bragg gratings or fiber Bragg gratings.

Laser Diode Fundamentals – Fiber Coupling

While there are countless varieties of fiber optics available on the market today, the two most important factors when discussing how the output of diode laser can be coupled into a fiber are its core size and numerical aperture.  Therefore, in this blog post, we are going to first take a brief look at the physical significance of these two parameters, and why they are so crucial to laser diode coupling.  In part 2 of this blog post, we will then go on to examine common fiber coupling techniques used in commercial fiber coupled laser diode packaging.

Laser Diode Fundamentals – Fiber Coupling 2

In the last blog post of our laser diode fundamentals series, we discussed the basics of fiber optics concentrating on two key parameters; core diameter and numerical aperture.   We mentioned how the numerical aperture depends on the relationship between the index of the core and the cladding, and that this directly relates to the angular acceptance cone of the fiber optic.  We also discussed how the core diameter in conjunction with the laser wavelength determines the spatial mode structure of the light guided through the fiber.  This is why single mode fiber coupled laser diodes are far more prevalent in the infrared range then they are in the ultraviolet for example, the shorter wavelengths require smaller core diameters…

Why Should Single-Mode Fibers Have an Angle Polished?

While back reflections are definitely problematic for lasers in general, they are most problematic for single-mode lasers.  Especially single-mode diode lasers.  There are two primary reasons for this extreme sensitivity.  As we discussed in our previous blog post titled “Laser Diode Fundamentals: Single Longitudinal Mode Diodes,” injection seeding can change the gain threshold of a laser.  In that blog, we explained that by controlling the feedback into the laser you could select specific longitudinal modes.  Similarly, when unwanted back reflections exist in the system, it will change the gain threshold in unintended ways and cause the longitudinal mode structure to destabilize.

Pros & Cons of Pigtailed Laser Diodes vs. Detachable Fiber-Coupled

For single-mode fibers the core diameter needs to be tiny, typically less than 10 microns, to ensure that no higher-order modes can propagate through the fiber.  On the other hand, multi-mode fibers can have a wide range of core diameters ranging from 62.5 microns upward on 1 mm.  Both of these fiber types are widely used with laser diodes depending on the needs of the application.  For example, when the beam profile is essential, such as in microscopy, single-mode fiber is almost always preferred.  By contrast in an application, such as laser cladding, where power is most important a multi-mode fiber would be the obvious choice.

Choosing the Right Connector for Your Fiber-Coupled Laser Diode

There are two main categories of fiber-coupled laser diodes, pigtailed and detachable. The pigtailed approach provides significant advantages when it comes to alignment stability, mainly when dealing with single-mode fibers which, typically have a core diameter of less than 10 microns. By comparison, it is impossible to ensure that detachable fiber-optics will line up in the same spot, each time the fiber is connected. Therefore, reducing the overall coupling efficiency of the system. However, unless the pigtail is fusion spliced to another fiber, for both pigtailed and detachable fibers, it is required that at least one end of the cable be terminated with a fiber-optic connector. As a result, it is essential to understand the different types of fiber connectors used with fiber-coupled diode lasers as well as their pros and cons.
