Product information "PSGA-101 Polarization Measurement System"

1280-1620 nm; SOP Generation Accuracy ±1°; Azimuth & Ellipticity Angle Accuracy <0.25°; DOP Measurement Accuracy ±1%; PER Dynamic Range: >40 dB; PMD Measurement Range 0.001-10 ps, 0.001-400 ps; PDL Measurement Range 0-40 dB

General Photonics’ PSGA-101 polarization measurement system is the most accurate product on the market for analyzing PMD, PDL and other polarization-related properties of light sources and optical materials.

Based on General Photonics’ patented magneto-optic polarization generation and analysis technology, the PSGA-101-A is specially designed for fiber optic applications and can effortlessly accomplish multiple functions, including polarization state generation (PSG), polarization state analysis (PSA), polarization extinction ratio (PER) measurement, polarization dependent loss (PDL) measurement, and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) measurement, as well as birefringence measurement in spun fiber.

Another attractive feature of the PSGA-101 instrument is its large flip-top LCD graphic display design, allowing large viewing area on a compact, portable enclosure. Furthermore, a 2x20 character LCD is also included on the front panel for easy operation of the instrument for applications that do not require a graphic display.

The instrument comes with an internal tunable laser for PDL and PMD measurement up to 10 ps. It can also control tunable lasers from third parties via a GPIB port for measurement of larger PMD values. The instrument also features a VGA port for use with an external LCD graphic display of the user’s choice.

NOA 86H Optical Adhesive 10g syringe

Refractive Index 1.55; 250-350 cps Viscosity at 25°C Norland Optical Adhesive 86H is an adhesive that will cure optically clear when exposed to long wavelength ultraviolet or visible light (blue-violet) or heat. The adhesive has low viscosity and meets the Bellcore specifications of 85C/85RH for 2000 hours as well as being USP Class VI biocompatible NOA 86H is recommended for bonding glass or plastic. NOA 86H is cured by ultraviolet light between 315 to 400 nanometers and visible light between 400 to 420 nanometers. The peak absorption wavelengths are 325, 365 and 400 nanometers. Minor absorption wavelengths are 410 and 420 nm. Full cure requires 2.5 Joules/cm 2 .In addition to the UV cure, NOA 86H contains a latent heat catalyst that can quickly cure areas that do not see the ultraviolet light. The catalyst allows the adhesive to cure in 10 minutes at 125°C in a convection oven, or 3 hours at 80°C. Faster cure times are possible with infrared ovens. Areas in contact with air will cure tacky unless exposed to UV light or given the 125°C cure. Temperatures less than 80°C will not activate the adhesive. The advantage of the heat cure is to bring partially cured adhesive to full cure to get the maximum physical properties of the adhesive. The heat cure is not required if all the adhesive receives proper exposure to UV or visible light. Typical Properties of NOA 86H Temperature Range -125°C to 125°C Elongation at Failure 2.8 % Modulus of Elasticity (psi) 360,400 Tensile Strength (psi) 7,834 Hardness - Shore D 75 75 Shelf life of the liquid is a minimum of 6 months from the date of shipment, refer to the package label for the actual expiration date, if stored in a cool (5-22° C), dark place in the original container. If refrigerated, allow the adhesive to come to room temperature prior to use.
