Ulrich Witte

Title: Ulrich Witte and His Optical Fiber Laser Invention.

Introduction

Ulrich Witte is an inventor associated with Mülheim-Kärlich, Germany, and Laserline Gesellschaft für Entwicklung und Vertrieb von Diodenlasern mbH. His recorded patent work concerns an optical fiber system designed to generate side-emitting scattered laser radiation.

Latest Patents

Witte’s listed patent is titled “Optical Fiber System for Generating a Side-Emitting Scattered Laser Radiation from a Coupled Optical Laser Radiation, and Associated Laser System.” The invention uses a side-emitting optical fiber with a fiber core, a surrounding scattering layer, and at least one outer cladding layer. The scattering layer converts laser radiation coupled into the fiber into scattered radiation emitted from its side.

At the fiber input, a connecting section is received in a fiber connector to create a mechanical connection. The patent describes stripping away at least the scattering layer and cladding layer at the free end of this section, suppressing side-emitted radiation there. Witte has 1 patent listed in the information provided.
