EBS SLED Broadband Light Sources

Product information "EBS SLED Broadband Light Sources"

SLED; 402-1680 nm; Optical Bandwidth 3-350 nm; Coherence Length 2.5-30 µm; Optical Power 0.5-40 mW

With the EBS series, EXALOS provides high-performance fiber-coupled light sources based on superluminescent light emitting diodes (SLEDs). These highly customizable benchtop instruments are available in various form factors for research, development, production and testing environments.

EBS SLED systems can be configured with up to eight SLEDs for ultra-broadband light sources. They can either have individual optical outputs for each SLED or can be configured to have one common output where the spectra of the individual SLEDs are combined.

EBS light sources are available over a wide spectral range from near-UV (390 nm) to near-IR (1700 nm). In the long-wavelength range, EXALOS can offer the EBS300058-02, an ultra-broadband 350-nm light source from 1270 to 1620 nm with more than 40 mW of optical output power. In the short-wavelength range EXALOS can offer the EBS300080-02, an ultra-broadband 160-nm light source from 750 to 920 nm, featuring a coherence length in air of less than 2.5 µm.

The EBS series’ optical output can be realized either with a single mode (SM) fiber or with a polarization maintaining (PM) fiber, depending on the type of SLED module that is chosen. The EBS30 and EBS40 series offer remote control through electrical analog and digital control signals and modulation capabilities up to 50 Hz.

Optionally, a low degree of polarization (DOP) can be achieved using fiber depolarizers. Furthermore, spectral shaping through custom optical bandpass filters can be realized. Please contact the AMS Technologies light source experts to discuss your customized SLED broadband light source solution.

IFA-100 Interferometric Fiber Analyser
500 to 1000 nm; Refractive Index Accuracy ±0.0001; Spatial Resolution 500 nm; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM, Other; Fiber Diameter 40 to 400 µm Interfiber Analysis’ IFA-100 multi-wavelength interferometric optical fiber analyzer can measure the refractive index profile of an optical fiber without the need for a cleave at wavelengths from 375 to 2000 nm. By scanning the fiber from the side, the IFA-100 unit allows for scanning and measuring the optical refractive index profile (RIP) along the fiber’s length with sub-micron spatial resolution. The measurement is independent of cumbersome fiber preparation like cleaving and allows for measuring the evolution of the refractive index profile over a given length of fiber. The equipment uses a broadband light source and can determine the refractive index profile at any wavelength between visible and near infrared. The refractive index or index of refraction (IOR) is a property of any material. For optically transmitting materials, such as for fibers and waveguides, it is reflected in the reduced speed of light when travelling through any media other than vacuum. Fibers and waveguides use a distribution of the IOR within their cross section to guide and reflect light, and knowledge of this distribution allows many other critical performance parameters to be calculated, such as mode fields, group and phase propagation constants and fiber dispersion. Based on Interfiber Analysis’ IFA-100 multi-wavelength interferometric optical fiber analyzer, AMS Technologies offers refractive index measurement services for product development, incoming inspection and forensic analysis on optical fibers. Key Features: Multi-wavelength: 500 to 1000 nm No Cleave Required Sub-µm Spatial Resolution: About 500 nm Applicable to Any Fiber Type Fast Measurement Refractive Index Accuracy: ±0.0001 Fiber Diameter: 40 to 400 µm Fiber Material: Silica Glass, Non-silica Glass, Plastic Concentricity Error Measurement: ±200 nm Core Non-circularity Error Measurement: ± 0.4% Fiber Type: Single Mode (SM), Multi Mode (MM), Polarization Maintaining PM), Micro-Structured (PCF), Multicore, Rare-earth, Cladding-pumped, Large Mode Area (LMA), Low Bend Loss, High-Δ, etc. Applications: Measuring Splices, Tapers or Couplers of Any Fiber Type; Test and Measurement; Telecommunication; Lasers
