    Fiber-optic collimators are used to launch the light from an optical fiber into a free space collimated beam with specified beam diameter or spot size. In essence, a simple collimation lens is all that is needed for this. Thorlabs offers a variety of fiber collimation and coupling solutions. They are widely used in telecommunications, sensing.

    The collimators should be placed with a spacing of 100 ± 10 mm (working distance) between the front lens surfaces for maximum coupling efficiency. In practice, it is often convenient to do this with a fiber collimator (fiber-optic collimator). There are two different basic types of such devices, differing in how the. Fiber-optic collimators are used to launch the light from an optical fiber into a free space collimated beam with specified beam diameter or spot size. 8 mm clear aperture and are coupled to SMF-28 Ultra single mode fiber. They are widely used in telecommunications, sensing. These solutions are manufactured at the production facility in Olching and are currently available with six focal lengths, three housing assem-blies, and various coatings.
