  • 1550nm 35mW Clarity NLL Narrow Linewidth Laser Module

    The Clarity NLL is a compact, low‑cost laser module that delivers high power and extremely narrow linewidth. The laser uses an ultra‑stable gas absorption line in a feedback configuration to narrow the laser linewidth, specified at < 5 kHz and typically 1–2 kHz. This linewidth is useful for any long‑baseline interferometric sensing application, such as distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), coherent lidar, or other similar applications. To support these applications, the module can also be configured to provide linear high‑speed frequency modulation capability of ±70 MHz with a 1 MHz bandwidth. The use of standard telecom lasers and our own gas cells provides a reliable and low‑cost product to meet the needs of these applications.

    Product features:Narrow linewidth: < 5 kHz, typically 1–2 kHz;High power: standard 40 mW;High stability: stabilised to a NIST‑traceable molecular reference;Fast frequency modulation: ±70 MHz DC to 1 MHz;Compact module or board‑level product;Custom digital I/O communication and command sets available

    Part Number:MP-NL-1550-35-5k-FA-M

    Application area:Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) | Coherent lidar | Test and measurement | Interferometric sensing

    3.Larger tuning range available – determined by the gas absorption width; may affect laser linewidth.


    Characteristic Curve

    The spectrum analyser plot shows the laser self‑heterodyne signal using a 35 km delay. Assuming a Lorentzian line shape, the laser linewidth is one‑tenth of the single‑side –20 dB linewidth, or approximately 1 kHz, as shown in the figure. Coherence is still visible after 35 km, as indicated by the ripples in Figure 2.
