US Patent Issued to II-VI DELAWARE on June 3 for "Mitigating stimulated brillouin scattering in high power optical amplifier system" (New York Inventor)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 4 -- United States Patent no. 12,322,922, issued on June 3, was assigned to II-VI DELAWARE INC. (Wilmington, Del.).

"Mitigating stimulated brillouin scattering in high power optical amplifier system" was invented by Martin R. Williams (Big Flats, N.Y.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A system has fiber amplifiers that amplify a seed signal into a high power signal. Control circuity drives the fiber amplifiers. An auxiliary broad-linewidth signal can be selectively introduced to mitigate the onset of Stimulated Brillouin Scattering (SBS) when the primary input seed source does not meet the requirements of power and/or linewidth. To determine whether to mitigate SBS, an inpu...
