MZI-001 Mach-Zehnder Interferometer
Product information "MZI-001 Mach-Zehnder Interferometer"
1060, 1310, 1550 nm; Wavelength Range ±70 nm; FSR 10-100 GHz; Detector Responsivity >0.8 A/W; Connector Type FC/APC, FC/PC, Specify
General Photonics’ MZI-001 is a fiber pigtailed Mach-Zehnder free space interferometer that detects changes in optical frequency. The device comes with two high-speed photodetectors for the balanced detection of the two complementary outputs of the interferometer.
The free spectral range (FSR) or zero-cross spacing of the device is defined to within 1. The FSR is user-defined between 10 GHz and 100 GHz. The MZI-001 interferometer’s free-space optical design eliminates polarization sensitivity.
