Erbium-Doped Specialty Fiber

Erbium-Doped Specialty Fiber

Manufactured with Corning’s patented outside vapor deposition (OVD) process, Corning® erbium-doped specialty fibers set the worldwide standard for uniformity and reliability.  All of Corning’s erbium-doped fibers are hermetically coated for significant advantage with respect to mechanical reliability and resistance to hydrogen-induced optical attenuation degradation. 

These erbium-doped fibers have a proven track record in state-of-the-art optical amplifiers and exhibit consistently low splice loss when coupled with fibers such as Corning® HI 1060 FLEX, Corning HI® 980, and Corning SMF-28e® optical fiber.

Erbium-doped fiber designs are available for conventional C-band, L-band, and reduced-clad (80 μm) applications. 

Applications:
Single and multi-channel optical amplifiers
Digital and analog systems
Community antenna television (CATV) amplifiers
