DEP Depolarizer

DEP Depolarizer

Manufacturer: Luna

1310, 1550 nm; IL 1.0 dB; DOP <5%; ER <0.5 dB; RL 55 dB General Photonics’ DEP depolarizer module is a passive device (requiring no external power) that depolarizes laser output. The standard configuration can be used for coherence lengths less than 10 m. Custom units can be specified for coherence lengths of multiple kilometers. The DEP polarizer is ideal for minimizing the polarization sensitivity of fiber optic sensor systems such as systems for quasi-distributed temperature and strain sensing based on fiber Bragg gratings (FBG), systems for distributed temperature and strain sensing based on Brillouin or Raman scattering and systems for distributed acoustic sensing based on Rayleigh scattering. It can also help to eliminate the effects of PDL or polarization sensitivity of optical components and instruments. Equally important, it can be used for depolarizing pump lasers to eliminate the polarization sensitivity of Raman amplifiers. The DEP polarizer is packaged in a small (85 × 60 × 10 mm), rugged aluminium box, providing high performance and superb environmental stability. The internal structure and package size may be different depending on the coherence length or spectral width of the light signal to be depolarized. Contact AMS Technologies for an optimized configuration for your intended applications.

DOP-201 Degree of Polarization Meter

DOP-201 Degree of Polarization Meter

Manufacturer: Luna

1260-1620 nm; DOP Accuracy 0.2%, 0.5%; DOP Range 0-100%; DOP Resolution 0.01%; Operating Power Range -40-6dBmThe DOP-201 system from Luna measures and displays the degree of polarization (DOP) of a light source in real time on the front panel display. The instrument incorporates a patented maximum & minimum search technique that accurately measures both low and high DOP with a wide dynamic range. This technique is superior to polarimeter-based methods that are inaccurate at low values of DOP as well as scrambler-based methods which are less accurate at high values of DOP.The instrument's wide wavelength range includes the S, C and L bands, without calibration. Simultaneous measurement of DOP and optical power level of the light source under test can be used to obtain DOP power dependence and to ensure low insertion loss during depolarizer manufacturing.The DOP-201 degree of polarization meter is ideal for characterizing the performance of depolarizers and depolarized light sources, such as ASE and SLED sources and the pumps for Raman amplifiers. It can also be used to monitor the OSNR (optical signal-to-noise ratio) and PMD (polarization mode dispersion) of optical signals, and to measure the noise figure of optical amplifiers.The DOP-201 features fast measurement, high accuracy and resolution, a wide operating power range, a bright OLED display and an analog output port for easy integration in automated depolarizer manufacturing stations.Key Features:Rapid Measurement Speed: 30 msDegree of Polarization (DOP) Wavelength IndependenceHigh DOP Accuracy: ±0.5% for Single Sample, ±0.2% for 10 Sample AverageWide Operating Wavelength Range: 1260 to 1620 nmDOP Range: 0 to 100%DOP Resolution: 0.01%Operating Power Range: -40 to 6 dBmFront Panel Real-time DisplayAnalog OutputDimensions: 356 x 216 x 89 mmApplications: Characterizing Depolarizers and Depolarized Light Sources, Such as ASE and SLED Sources and the Pumps for Raman Amplifiers; Monitoring OSNR and PMD of Optical Signals; Measuring the Noise Figure of Optical Amplifiers; Depolarizer Manufacturing and QC; Fiber Gyro Coil Characterization; ROADM Manufacturing

These instruments feature OLED displays with a high contrast bright readout that allows the data to be observed from several feet away. The instruments can be operated from the front panel or via remote control.The operator can choose from four measurement speeds ranging from 0.1 to 1 s/cycle to optimize speed or accuracy and can observe multiple parameters on the front panel screen including PER, axis angle, power ratios, and optical power. The measurement data can be stored and recalled for comparison purposes from the front panel as well.

MPC-201 Polarization Controller

MPC-201 Polarization Controller

Manufacturer: Luna

980-1620 nm; Multiple Polarization Control Modes; IL <0.6 dB; PDL <0.1 dB; PMD <0.2 ps; AL <0.1 dB; RL >50 dBControlling the state of polarization (SOP) of an optical signal has never been easier – Lunas MPC-201 multifunction polarization controller has four operational modes for complete polarization control: variable rate polarization scrambling, manual polarization adjustment, polarization modulation, and externally triggered random SOP generation.Four different polarization scrambling methods enable the SOP to a) trace out a spiral pattern about a static or rotating axis with a nearly uniform SOP variation rate for system stress tests (Tornado scrambling); b) generate a continuous trace with a Rayleigh distribution of SOP variation rate, for emulation of the SOP variation in a fiber link (Rayleigh scrambling); c) generate a continuous trace with uniform sphere coverage for PDL measurement (Triangle scrambling); or d) evenly cover the Poincaré sphere with discrete, random points at a uniform rate (Discrete scrambling).In the SOP modulation mode, each polarization control axis can be selectively controlled with a sine, square, or triangle wave of user defined frequency and amplitude. Each polarization control axis can also be controlled manually, by setting the input voltage either from the front panel controls or through a remote control interface. In externally triggered scrambling mode, discrete, random SOPs are generated in response to a trigger input, a feature desirable for recirculating loop applications or other applications requiring synchronization with other devices.Finally, the MPC-201 can emulate the Agilent 11896A polarization scrambler function, allowing it to act as a plug-in replacement for this popular but discontinued device, while offering many more advanced features. The MPC-201 polarization controller puts the user in control.Key Features:Multiple Polarization Control ModesTornado Scrambling (Quasi-uniform Rate Distribution): 0.00 to 2,000 Revolutions/sReal Fiber SOP (State of Polarization) Variation Emulation (Rayleigh Rate Distribution): 0.00 to 2,000 rad/sDiscrete Random States SOP Scrambling: 0.00 to 20,000 Points/sTriangle Polarization Scrambling: 0.00 to 2,000 x 2π rad/sAgilent 11896A Scrambling Emulation: Speed Settings 1 to 8, Matched to 11896A SettingsSOP ModulationOperating Wavelength Range: 1260 to 1620 nm, 980 to 1310 nmManual Polarization Control: 4 Channels, 0 to 4π Each ChannelLow Insertion Loss (IL): <0.5 dB With ConnectorsLow Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL): <0.05 dB With ConnectorsLow Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD): <0.1 ps With ConnectorsLow Activation Loss (AL): <0.05 dB With ConnectorsReturn Loss: >50 dB With ConnectorsOptical Power Handling: 1,000 mWBright OLED DisplayApplications: Recirculating Loop Studies; Automated Testing; Real Fiber Emulation; SOP Variation Emulation; PMD Emulation; Polarization Scrambling; System Polarization Studies; PDL/DOP Measurement
