1 µm fiber lasers for precision photonics and high-power CW applications
Optromix Ytterbium fiber lasers cover the 1 µm spectral range with platforms designed to address different requirements. Single-frequency models prioritize ultra-narrow linewidth and controlled wavelength tuning, while single-mode PMY/SMY systems provide higher output power with narrow spectral width and TEM₀₀ beam quality.
Within the single-frequency family, SFYX models are available at standard wavelengths 1030.0, 1064.0 and 1107.4 nm, while SFYSM series offers standard wavelengths 1030, 1064, 1093, 1107 and 1112 nm. PMY/SMY can be configured at a selected central wavelength anywhere within the 1030–1122 nm range.
Broad Ytterbium wavelength coverage across the product family.
SFYX and SFYSM systems with ultra-narrow spectral linewidth.
PMY and SMY high-power CW fiber laser platforms.
Rack/Benchtop systems and compact configurations for system integration.
Two Ytterbium laser families for different optical requirements
The key distinction is in their spectral characteristics. Choose single-frequency when narrow linewidth and wavelength control are critical; choose single-mode when higher CW power with TEM₀₀ beam quality are the primary requirements.
Single-Frequency Ytterbium Fiber Lasers
Ultra-narrow-linewidth CW systems based on a single-frequency seed architecture. Available as high-power SFYS, SFYX turnkey lasers, as well as the compact SFYSM OEM module.
Single-Mode Ytterbium Fiber Lasers
High-power CW TEM₀₀ Ytterbium fiber lasers available in polarized PMY and unpolarized SMY variants. Designed for applications requiring stable single-mode output without the ultra-narrow linewidth requirement of the SFY family.
Ytterbium Fiber Laser Models
SFYS / SFYX
High-power single-frequency Ytterbium fiber laser that integrates the seed laser, power amplifier, control electronics and power supply in a complete, turnkey system.
SFYSM
Compact single-frequency Ytterbium fiber laser module designed for integration into scientific and industrial systems requiring a narrow-linewidth seed source.
PMY / SMY
Single-mode 1 µm Ytterbium fiber laser family for high-power CW operation. PMY models provide linearly polarized output, while SMY provides unpolarized output. Standard configurations are benchtop systems, with OEM versions available for integration upon request.

From 1030 nm to 1122 nm
The Ytterbium family covers a broad 1 µm wavelength range, with wavelength availability depending on the selected architecture. 1064 nm is available as a standard wavelength for both SFYX and SFYSM and falls within the configurable 1030–1122 nm range of the PMY/SMY platforms.
For applications that require a precise non-standard wavelength, Optromix can configure selected Ytterbium platforms within their specified tuning and custom-wavelength ranges.
SFYX: 1030.0, 1064.0, 1107.4 nm, 1112 nm. SFYSM: 1030, 1064, 1107, 1112 nm.
Custom operating wavelengths are available across the supported Ytterbium range.
