The High-Power Eyesafe Pulse Isolator for Use by Fiber Laser Integrators

14 Feb 2006

ARIEL Technologies Inc. fiber-coupled pulse isolator, reaches a peak power exceeding .5 KW, three orders of magnitude greater than conventional fiber-optic components on the market today.

ATI’s breakthrough products provide solutions to long-term industry problems MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, FEBRUARY 8, 2006 — ARIEL Technologies Inc. (ATI) is supplying industry-leading fiber laser integrators with components never before seen in the non-telecom laser photonics industry. ATI’s fiber-coupled pulse isolator, reaches a peak power exceeding .5 KW, three orders of magnitude greater than conventional fiber-optic components on the market today. ATI’s High-Power Eyesafe Pulse Isolator was field tested as a protective component of the award-winning Israeli Laser Radar (LADAR) system based on an eye-safe fiber laser. LADAR won first place at the 46th Annual Paris Airshow, Le Bourget, in June 2005. “The system developers selected ATI’s Eyesafe Pulse Isolator because they needed a high-powered component that would provide long-term reliability, ensuring the safety of the LADAR system users,” says Alon Ashkenazi, COO of API, ATI’s Israel-based development center. The pulse isolator reaches a peak power of more than .5 KW, three orders of magnitude greater than the standard 500 milliWatt isolators available on the market today. Field test results demonstrate a power level above 600 W. In addition, the isolators can withstand an impact of millions of pulses without degradations. Laser output is to a single mode fiber, in a compact package size. About ARIEL Technologies, Inc. ARIEL Technologies Inc. (ATI) develops, tests, and manufactures photonics components for fiber amplifiers and lasers and builds active fiber optic modules.
