Laser Diode / LED to Fiber Delivery System Questionnaire

Section 1 Section 2 Section 3 Section 4 Section 5 Section 6


Thank you for choosing OZ Optics. In order to help you choose the best components for your system, we would appreciate it if you could answer the following questions. If you do not know what to enter, write DON'T KNOW beside the question. We will then recommend an option. If you need assistance filling out the form, you are welcome to contact your nearest distributor or our sales office where a sales representative will be happy to assist.

To help you fully understand all the relevant issues involved in designing the ideal laser to fiber delivery system, we ask you to read our Laser to Fiber Source Couplers Application Notes before completing this questionnaire.

Please note that if your source is a collimated output, such as a solid state laser, and not a laser diode or LED, then you need to instead to fill out our Laser to Fiber Delivery System Questionnaire.
