FBGs written into radiation resistant pure silica core fibers are ideal for applications in the nuclear industry. Femtosecond FBG inscription through the fiber’s protective coating yields excellent mechanical strength – very important in strain sensing applications. These FBGs replace similar products from the former FORC Photonics.

0.36-5 MP; Pixel Size 2.2x2.2-6.0x6.0 µm; Sensor Size 1/3”-1/2” Diagonal; Colour or B/W; 3-310 fps; Resolution 8-12 bit; USB 2.0; Buffered; Progressive Scan; Dynamic Range >55-70 dB; Board-level or Enclosed Mightex’s B-Series USB 2.0 CMOS cameras with frame buffers are optimized for machine-vision applications, and they can also be used for a wide variety of other applications such as digital microscopy and medical imaging, where quality, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness are crucial. B-Series cameras are available as colour or B/W versions, with resolutions from Wide VGA (WVGA, 752x480) up to 5 MP (2592x1944) and 8, 10 or 12 bit, and they can be ordered as “naked” board-level device or pre-mounted in an enclosure. Monochrome cameras often exhibit a 20% higher spatial resolution than their colour counterparts because no pixel interpolation is necessary. Without a Bayer colour filter on the sensor, monochrome cameras are also more sensitive than colour sensors, especially in near IR and UV regions. Mightex’s B-Series cameras feature built-in frame buffers, global shutter (Wide VGA versions), external trigger-in, strobe-out, and a powerful camera engine that supports multiple cameras. The frame rate can be as high as 60 fps in full resolution and up to 600 fps using ROI mode (depending on colour or B/W and sensor resolution). In addition, a user-friendly GUI based application software and an SDK are provided for custom software development. A DirectShow driver and a TWAIN driver are included (except for 5 MP B/W versions), and a USB command set protocol is provided for non-Windows based applications. A Linux driver is also either included (5 MP and Wide VGA B/W versions) or available upon request.

In order to avoid electro-static discharge (ESD) related damages, workforce handling a board-level camera should be properly grounded. ESD related damages are considered as mishandling and are not covered by product warranty. For lab use, it is strongly recommended to choose an enclosed camera instead of a board-level one.

Numerical Aperture 0.09; Core Dia. 20 µm; Cladding Dia. 127 µm; Gray Loss <20 dB/km; Polarization Extinction Ratio >20 dBGreitlex Photonics’ SBS-DC series of SBS-suppressed optical fibers feature a suppressed stimulated Brillouin scattering gain. Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is the major factor limiting maximal power of narrow-band fiber lasers (less than 100 MHz linewidth). It is especially crucial in applications which require small mode field diameter (MFD), i.e. Raman amplifiers. Suppression of SBS gain, while maintaining MFD (and Raman gain) becomes a very important task in such fibers. Another promising application of single-frequency lasers is LIDAR (Light Detection And Ranging). In the case of all-fiber systems, it is the passive fibers at the amplifier output (pigtails of isolators, circulators, collimators) that limit the maximum achievable peak power. Thus, development of large mode area (LMA) passive fibers with increased SBS threshold (as compared to standard LMA fibers) is more and more critical for those applications. To suppress SBS gain for a fixed MFD, Greitlex Photonics uses a specially designed multi-layer, multi-components doped core. It allows to suppress SBS gain by 3 to 5 dB relative to standard, uniformly doped Ge-doped passive fibers with the same MFD. The developed method allows Greitlex Photonics to design custom dopants distribution over the core to suppress SBS by 3 to 5 dB for most of the actual optical refractive index profiles (any core numerical aperture and diameter). The SBS-DC-20/125-1550PM polarization maintaining (PM) fiber has been specially designed to be used in pigtails of output components (isolators, collimators, pump-and-signal combiners etc.) of high peak-power single-frequency lasers operated near 1550 nm. The fiber is intended for utilization in systems with the ability to maintain polarization. Fibers with suppressed SBS-gain for a custom designed operating wavelength, core numerical aperture (NA) and diameter are available on request. Please contact AMS Technologies to discuss your customized SBS-suppressed optical fiber solution.

The high-index fibers are manufactured with Corning's outside vapor deposition (OVD) process which results in durable, highly consistent glass and excellent reliability. When used as component pigtails, HI series fibers allow for efficient fiber coupling within photonic products. The fibers also offer reduced bend attenuation due to their high core index of refraction. Corning’s HI series of high-index single mode fibers includes products like HI 780, HI 780C, HI 980, RC HI 980, HI 1060, RC HI 1060, HI 1060 FLEX and RC HI 1060 FLEX. For more information please refer to the Corning® HI high-index SM fibers datasheets. For the HI 780 specialty fiber series, a re-engineered version, HI 780C, is available, which delivers nonadiabatic taper loss during component manufacturing. HI 780C is a coupler-optimized design that allows for steeper tapers and shorter couplers with lower losses.
