Specially designed fibers are used for a variety of other applications, including sensors and fiber lasers.

The company said the system was the first fiber laser specifically optimized for metal cutting.

These effects are minimized when the fiber laser is short.

Quite often, the fiber laser is designed as a double-clad fiber.

Usually, the term coherent addition applies to fiber lasers.

In fiber lasers, the gain medium is the optical fiber itself.

A figure-8 laser is a fiber laser with a figure 8-shaped ring resonator.

The same fibers can be used to create fiber lasers.

The advantages of fiber lasers over other types include:

Since the year 2000 fiber lasers have been introduced to give a much increased engraving quality direct into black polymeric materials.
