Special Offer For Fiber Laser Simulation Software

Lohja - Liekki, the leading supplier of highly doped optical fibers, is providing a special introductory offer of the simulation software for high power, fiber lasers and amplifiers; Liekki Application Designer v3.0.

During August Liekki Application Designer (LAD) v3.0 is provided with a special introductory offer of a 25% discount off normal license pricing. A free downloadable two-week trial version is available on their website www.liekki.com. Liekki also announces the start of its Liekki Application Designer University Program.

"Liekki Application Designer v3.0 is the most effective and versatile simulation package focused on high power laser and amplifier applications. The software is able to simulate and analyze both continuous wave (CW) and pulsed applications (including time domain effects and radial doping profiles) using erbium or ytterbium doped fibers as the gain medium". Says Dr. Mircea Hotoleanu, Liekki Product Manager for Design Software. "Liekki Application Designer v3.0 provides our customers with long waited design and simulation capability for high power fiber applications. Especially high power fiber lasers and amplifiers are of utmost interest for companies in the military, aerospace, industrial manufacturing and medical sectors. The need for a good versatile design tool is obvious", he continues.

This new release of the Liekki Application Designer, v3.0, builds on the successful v2.0 strengthened with new powerful features essential for system designers, optical engineers, research scientists and students learning fiber application design. Version 3.0 adds transient (time-domain) analysis into the tool box. New components such as time dependent signal sources and optical modulators have been added. The user can also calculate non-linear effects thresholds such as Brillouin scattering and Raman scattering and the effect of refractive index variation with optical power density. The user interface and the reporting tools are further enhanced for ease-of-use and full compatibility with other software.
