EPC Electrically Driven Fiber Polarization Controllers/Scramblers
3 Stage Scramblers or 4 Stage Controllers Available; 1250 to 1650 nm (Others on Request); Insertion Loss <0.4 dB; Polarization Dependent Loss <0.06 dB; Fiber Type SM OZ Optics' EPC series of electrically driven polarization controllers provides a simple, efficient means to manipulate the state of polarization within a single mode (SM) fiber. Employing a novel mechanical fiber squeezing technique, the device is controlled by either three or four (depending on the model) input voltages that the user can vary over a ±5 V range to provide endless polarization control in a robust, easy to operate package. The EPC controllers’ rapid response speed easily handles changes in polarization caused by the external environment and is highly suitable for polarization scrambling for either averaging PDL effects or for making PMD or PDL measurements. Because the fiber within the device is continuous, all insertion losses, return losses, and PDL effects are limited only by the fiber itself. This makes it ideal for precise test and measurement applications. EPC polarization controllers are available in either a three or four channel configuration. The EPC-300 three-channel system is ideal for polarization scrambling applications such as for polarization averaging or PDL measurements. The added redundancy of the EPC-400 four-channel version opens the way to continuous polarization control, without having to occasionally reset the device when a controller reaches its limit. The unique design of the OZ Optics EPC series of polarization controllers means that they do not require any dedicated driver circuitry. There are no internal voltage multipliers or high voltage signals to worry about. Thus operation is safe and simple. Key Features: Negligible Insertion Losses Negligible Return Losses Negligible Polarization Dependent Losses (PDL) >100 Hz Response Speed Continuous Polarization Control Capability Low Voltage Applications: Polarization Scrambling; Polarization Stabilization; Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD) Mitigation; Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) Mitigation; PDL and PMD Measurement Systems; Interferometers and Sensors; OCT Systems

Ox-SAC-08 Diamond Angled Fiber Cleaver
Manual Angled Cleaver; Fiber Type SM, PM; Fiber Diameter 125 µm; Buffer Diameter 250-900 µm; Cleave Angle 8° (±2°); Min. Cleave Length 8 mm Oxford Fiber’s Ox-SAC-08 is the world’s simplest angled cleaver. The single mode (SM) or polarization maintaining (PM) fiber is clamped under rubber rings at two points and bent down onto a sharp diamond blade. The optical fiber is cleaved so that its single mode or polarization maintaining core is at an angle of 8° from perpendicular. This way, the back-reflection from the cleaved end facet is is reduced to <-60dB, avoiding optical noise in telecom systems or eliminating reflections in fiber sensor arrays. If you require a cleaver for any other fiber type or a custom cleaver tailored to your specifications, please get in touch with the AMS Technologies fiber cleaving experts.

DFB Single Frequency Laser Diodes
760-1083 nm; Typ. Linewidth 0.6 MHz; Output Power 6-150 mW CW; Threshold Current ≤70 mA; Slope Efficiency 0.7 W/A; Side Mode Suppression Ratio ≥30 dBToptica eagleyard’s DFB series of distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes features a built-in wavelength-selective grating stabilizing the wavelength. The DFB series’ entire resonator consists of a periodic structure. Thus, the devices operate on a single resonator mode emitting quasi-monochromatic radiation with a very small line width and low phase noise. The lasers can have very low-intensity noise because of the lack of mode partition noise. Due to the Gaussian mode the output is diffraction-limited.The choice of a distributed feedback design instead of a similar distributed Bragg grating (DBR) structure enables even a broader smooth tuning range around the operational point without the risk of experiencing spectral issues known as mode-hops, as these are given by design of a DBR diode, making the latter less suitable for the needs of atom spectroscopy.Special variants are available – two versions are intended to be used as seed lasers for pulsed fiber lasers, while other variants aim at oxygen detection as the emission wavelength of these laser diodes match with the strong absorption lines of oxygen at 760 nm and 764 nm while wavelength tuning around one of these absorption lines is possible.Further variants are especially suitable for spectroscopy with mode‐hop free operation and small linewidth guaranteed at the specified target wavelength for spectroscopic applications – these laser diodes are reaching the target wavelength by temperature tuning and allow wavelength tuning around this target wavelength.External backreflections may disturb the spectrum of these laser diodes, so the use of butterfly (BFW01) or TOC03 packages and effective optical isolation is recommended for spectroscopic applications requiring absolutely mode‐hop‐free tuning. Finally, special tunable variants with integrated optical isolators are available, enabling a wide mode‐hop free tuning range given by the specified operating temperature range and the specified power range.Key Features:Single Frequency ModeHigh Side Mode Suppression > 50 dBNarrow Linewidth <1 MHzPulse Width 1 to 50 nsPeak Power up to 500 mWRepetition Rate up to 1 MHzSMSR >35 dBProductWavelengthOutput PowerSpecificsDFB-0760-00012-1500-BFY12-0005760 nm12 mWoxygen detection, spectroscopy, metrologyDFB-0760-00040-1500-BFW01-0005760 nm40 mWoxygen detection with collimatorDFB-0760-00040-1500-TOV01-0005760 nm40 mWoxygen detection VCSEL replacementDFB-0760-00040-1500-TOC03-0005760 nm40 mWoxygen detectionDFB-0780-00020-1500-BFY12-0005780 nm20 mWoxygen detection,spectroscopy: Rb D2DFB-0780-00040-1500-BFY02-0000780 nm40 mWbasic variant with PM fiberDFB-0780-00040-1500-BFY02-0002780 nm40 mWtunable with PM fiberDFB-0780-00040-1500-BFW11-0005780 nm40 mWspectroscopy: Rb D2 with isolator and collimatorDFB-0780-00080-1500-TOV01-0005780 nm80 mWspectroscopy: Rb D2DFB-0780-00080-1500-BFW01-0002780 nm80 mWtunable with collimatorDFB-0780-00080-1500-BFW01-0005780 nm80 mWspectroscopy: Rb D2 with collimatorDFB-0780-00080-1500-TOC03-0000780 nm80 mWbasic variantDFB-0780-00080-1500-TOC03-0002780 nm80 mWtunableDFB-0780-00080-1500-TOC03-0005780 nm80 mWspectroscopy: Rb D2DFB-0785-00040-1500-BFY02-0000785 nm40 mWbasic variant with PM fiberDFB-0785-00040-1500-BFY02-0002785 nm40 mWtunable with PM fiberDFB-0785-00100-1500-TOV01-0000785 nm100 mWbasic variantDFB-0795-00015-1500-BFY12-0005795 nm15 mWspectroscopy: Rb D1 lineDFB-0795-00040-1500-BFW11-0005795 nm40 mWspectroscopy: Rb D1 with isolator and collimatorDFB-0795-00080-1500-BFW01-0005795 nm80 mWspectroscopy: Rb D1 with collimatorDFB-0852-00015-1500-BFY12-0005852 nm15 mWspectroscopy: Cs D2 DFB-0852-00050-1500-BFY02-0000852 nm50 mWbasic variant with PM fiberDFB-0852-00050-1500-BFY02-0002852 nm50 mWtunable with PM fiberDFB-0852-00100-1500-BFW01-0002852 nm100 mWtunable with collimatorDFB-0852-00100-1500-BFW01-0005852 nm100 mWspectroscopy: CS D2 with collimatorDFB-0852-00150-1500-TOC03-0000852 nm150 mWbasic variantDFB-0852-00150-1500-TOC03-0002852 nm150 mWtunableDFB-0852-00150-1500-TOC03-0005852 nm150 mWspectroscopy: Cs D2DFB-0895-00050-1500-TOV01-0005895 nm50 mWspectroscopy: Cs D1DFB-0935-00080-1500-TOC03-0004935 nm80 mWspectroscopy: YbDFB-1030-00500-1500-BFY02-00101030 nm500 mWseed laser (pulsed mode) with PM fiberDFB-1064-00025-1500-BFY12-00021064 nm25 mWtunable with isolator and PM fiberDFB-1064-00040-1500-BFY02-00001064 nm40 mWbasic variant with PM fiberDFB-1064-00040-1500-BFY02-00021064 nm40 mWtunable with PM fiberDFB-1064-00080-1500-TOC03-00001064 nm80 mWbasic variantDFB-1064-00080-1500-TOC03-00021064 nm80 mWtunableDFB-1064-00500-1500-BFY02-00101064 nm500 mWseed laser (pulsed mode) with PM fiberDFB-1083-00025-1500-BFY12-00021083 nm25 mWtunable with isolator and PM fiberDFB-1083-00080-1500-TOC03-00021083 nm80 mW Applications: Interferometry, Laser Doppler Velocimetry and Vibrometry; Cold Atoms; Optically Pumped Atom Clocks; Quantum Optics; THz Generation, Raman Spectroscopy; Cs- ,Rb- , K- Spectroscopy; Seed Laser for LIDAR SystemsPlease note that TOPTICA eagleyard products are not availble from us in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.
