1310nm benchtop with software control DFB laser 10mW

Idealphotonics' benchtop software-controlled DFB light source is based on an advanced microprocessor control system, combined with high-precision ATC and ACC (APC) control circuits to achieve high and stable output of the laser, while ensuring that the light source is quick and intuitive to operate. We can also provide corresponding communication interfaces and control software according to user requirements to achieve computer control. This light source uses a one-key recovery function (Run/Stop button), which can effectively help customers return to the previous working state. This is a highly integrated modular system light source, which uses PC-side software intelligent control. Customers can set the required working temperature and current according to their needs. It is very suitable for experimental scientific research and production testing. In addition, we need to modulate the laser for some application fields. We have connected two modulation ports, one for high frequency and one for low frequency, to better meet customers' needs for multiple uses of one machine.

532nm Short-wavelength PM optical fiber

Idealphotonics' Panda and Bowtie single-mode polarization-maintaining (PM) optical fibers are named according to the type of stress rod used. The stress rod is aligned with the fiber core, and the applied stress generates birefringence within the core, maintaining polarization. The Panda-type stress rod is cylindrical, while the Bowtie-type uses a trapezoidal prism stress rod, as shown in the diagram above. Generally, these two types of fibers can be used interchangeably. Panda-type fibers have long been used in the communications field because the cylindrical stress rod is easier to maintain uniformity over long distances during production. Polarization-maintaining (PM) fibers are designed to provide the highest level of polarization maintenance for wavelengths from 488nm to over 1550nm. These fibers can be used in interferometric sensors, modulators, delay lines, spectroscopy, and biomedical applications. We use "Bowtie" stress-applying components (SAP) to induce birefringence in the fiber core. These efficient SAP designs can generate very high birefringence without excessive stress, thus effectively controlling the polarization orientation throughout the fiber system. The Bowtie PM fiber core has high-expansion, boron-doped glass regions on both sides, which shrink more than the surrounding silica. The resulting tension creates birefringence (producing two different refractive indices: a higher refractive index parallel to the applied stress and a lower refractive index perpendicular to the stress). Fibercore's "Bowtie" design generates more birefringence than any other stress application design. This is because it is based on two opposing wedges, which is the simplest and most effective way to apply stress to a point.

1550nm C-band High Stability ASE Light Source Module

The ASE light source is a white light source with very high brightness across a wide spectral range. The C-band ASE wide-spectrum light source module is used in distributed fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensing systems, optical passive component testing, and spectral analysis design. It is an Amplified Spontaneous Emission (ASE) light source, which is based on the principle of pumping an erbium-doped fiber (Er ions) with a semiconductor laser to generate ASE in the C-band (1528-1563nm). Specially designed C-band spectral gain flattening filters (GFF) give the product extremely high optical-to-optical conversion efficiency and excellent spectral flatness in the C-band. To ensure that the distributed fiber Bragg grating system meets strict output stability requirements, global optical feedback control technology and pulse width modulation (PWM) precise temperature control are used internally. This ensures extremely high output power stability and spectral waveform stability.

Hollow core anti-resonant fiber 200-3500nm (core diameter 33um, cladding 250um, pure quartz material)

Silica fiber has been widely used in various scenarios for laser transmission, but in many fields, due to the nonlinear effects caused by the material, the light guide window, the damage mechanism of the laser to the fiber material, etc., the laser transmission based on quartz has basically reached the limit of the fiber. Anti-resonant fiber (ARF) is a hollow-core fiber in which light can be confined to the hollow with a refractive index less than that of the fiber material and transmitted along the fiber axis. Hollow fiber has extremely low nonlinearity, high damage threshold, and small overlap between the internal transmission beam and the surrounding glass, which provides a unique possible solution for fiber-based, very high-power lasers. This will achieve breakthrough applications in laser manufacturing, laser ignition, defense, ultrafast lasers, nonlinear endoscopes/microscopes, and gas-based mid-infrared lasers.

Polyimide coated high temperature resistant single mode optical fiber SM9/125/155PI

Polyimide is a polymer material with good high and low temperature resistance, good mechanical strength, and excellent comprehensive performance. It can greatly improve the heat resistance of the optical fiber coating layer, extend the service life of the optical fiber in a high temperature environment, and at the same time maintain good mechanical properties in a low temperature environment without brittle cracking. Polyimide is a self-extinguishing polymer with a low smoke rate and a thermal expansion coefficient close to that of quartz. It has certain self-lubricating properties, is resistant to aging, and is resistant to high-voltage electrical breakdown. It has very little outgassing under high vacuum. Polyimide has high radiation resistance and mechanical properties, and can still maintain high strength under irradiation. It has high tensile, bending, and compression strengths, and outstanding creep resistance and dimensional stability. Polyimide is non-toxic, stable, and biocompatible, and can be used to prepare tableware and some medical consumables replacement supplies. At the same time, polyimide is resistant to almost all organic solvents, some inorganic acids, and hydrolysis
