  • Fiber Bragg Grating Combiner

    Fiber Bragg Grating Combiner

    BragGrate™ Combiner is a transmitting or reflecting volume Bragg grating (or set of gratings) enabling Spectral Beam Combining (SBC). It combines laser radiation from numerous sources into a single, nearly diffraction-limited beam with increased energy brightness.
