VGA V-Groove Assemblies

Product information "VGA V-Groove Assemblies"

1 to 48 Channels; Channel Spacing 250 µm; Fiber Type SM, MM, PM; Connector Type SC, FC, ST, LC, MU; Insertion Loss <0.5 dB per Fiber

OZ Optics’ VGA series of V-Groove array assemblies assists in developing next generation photonic devices. The arrays are manufactured using precision silicon wafer V-Groove technology or Pyrex V-Groove in conjunction with a Pyrex lid, enabling sub-micron alignment accuracy with UV cure attachment capabilities.

VGA series V-Groove array assemblies are available with single mode (SM), multi mode (MM) or PANDAtype polarization maintaining (PM) fibers. Customization can even include different types of fibers assembled into a single array.

In general, OZ Optics uses polarization maintaining fibers based on the PANDA fiber structure when building polarization maintaining components and patch cords. However OZ Optics can construct devices using other PM fiber structures. OZ Optics also carries some alternative fiber types in stock, please contact AMS Technologies for availability. If necessary, OZ Optics is willing to use customer supplied fibers to build devices.

Standard PANDA style PM arrays are manufactured with the polarization axis (stress rods) aligned vertical to the V-Groove base within 3°. High grade assemblies with one to eight channels can be provided with the stress rods aligned to 1°. Arrays can also be provided with the fibers aligned parallel to the base, alternating axes or at custom angles. When supplied with a breakout and connectors, the alignment of the connector is also to the slow axis, within 3° for standard connectors or available to within 1.5° for high grade connectors.

V-Groove array assemblies can be manufactured with a hermetic feedthrough attached. This enables the development of multichannel photonic devices capable of meeting Telcordia requirements. Fiber breakouts can also be added, to convert ribbonized fibers into separated fibers, capable of being connectorized.

  • Up to 48 Fiber V-Groove Arrays
  • Hermetic Feed-through Versions With Glass or Metal Solder Available
  • Single Mode (SM), Multi Mode (MM) or Polarization Maintaining Fibers

Fiber optic assemblies range from a single fiber cable terminated with industry standard connectors on both ends and jacketed in flexible sheathing, to a multi-fiber design consisting of multiple inputs and/or outputs, each with different cross-section areas and geometries, each requiring a custom machined endfitting and a heavy duty outer jacket to protect the assembly from being crushed. Fiberguide designs and engineers assemblies using not only Fiberguide’s own pure silica core / silica clad, silica core / plastic clad fibers, but borosilicate glass fiber, ESKA™ plastic optical fiber, fluoride fiber, chalcogenide fiber, erbium-doped fiber and polarization maintaining fiber as well. Fiberguide’s bundled assemblies are available with numerical apertures from 0.12 to 0.66, with the widest range of custom and standard endfittings / connectors and outer jackets to tailor a product to your technical and economic requisites. For high temperature applications, some fiber types can be aluminium or gold coated on request. Additionally, all fiber types can be equipped on demand with Fiberguide’s patented RARe Motheye anti-reflective technology that enhances fiber transmission performance and significantly increases the damage threshold for your application over a large wavelength range. As an option, some fiber types can be end capped to achieve higher coupled power into a fiber core by reducing the power density at the air / silica interface, commonly the point of laser damage. End cap diameters and lengths are offered for select numerical apertures and fiber cores size but can be easily customized for a variety of fiber types and specialized applications.

It has been optimized to meet the demanding performance requirements of applications that include medical, life sciences and automated instrumentation. This ultra-compact stand-alone assembly is RoHS compliant and can be ordered with a variety of collimation optics which allow easy integration into your system. A wide variety of wavelength and power options are available including the FiberTec II SLED series covering the visible to near-infrared wavelengths and FiberTec II laser diode modules which include 405, 488, 532 and 635 nm wavelength products. The FiberTec II lasers utilize several distinct technical approaches compared to other laser diode modules. Blue Sky Research’s patented micro lens approach optimizes the efficiency of coupling power into the fiber, allowing to drive the lasers less hard than competitors, which results in more stable power output over time and temperature. This means that with a FiberTecII product you’ll never have to re-align your fiber, as proven by Blue Sky Research with hundreds of thousands of hours of real time test data and extreme environmental test. In the FiberTec II series, the thermoelectric cooler (TEC) stabilizes laser power output and lasing wavelength over varying operational temperatures. Power stability is better than 0.5% over any 1-hour period. Our highly integrated electronic control is entirely contained within the laser module and no separate control box required. The lasers require DC power for operation. Output options include polarization maintaining (PM) fiber (typical extinction ratio of 100:1) and single mode or multi mode fiber. Termination options include fiber connectorization or collimation optics with diameters ranging from 0.8 to 3.3 mm. For the FiberTEC II series of fiber-coupled diode laser modules the dedicated power supply CLPS is available as an accessory. This device provides up to 2.5 A of current for laser diode and TEC and allows the operation of the FiberTEC II series from standard power sockets with 100 to 240 VAC.
