PFA Attenuating SM Patch Cables

Product information "PFA Attenuating SM Patch Cables"

Single Mode Patchcords; 440 to 1625 nm; Attenuation 0.5 to 20 dB; Return Loss 50, 60 dB; Power Handling ≤2 W

OZ Optics’ PFA series of low cost fixed attenuating single mode fiber patchcords are ideal for high power applications and can be easily installed into fiber splice enclosures. The Attenuating Fiber Advantage: OZ Optics has recently enhanced its fixed attenuator product line by developing a new technology to precisely attenuate signals in fibers. This patent pending, fully automatable technique allows one to create fixed attenuators within any standard fiber, with low polarization dependent loss (PDL) and high power handling. The resultant attenuating fiber is physically identical in appearance and behaviour to the original fiber, allowing it to be used to build attenuating fiber patchcords. As the process used does not require the manufacture of special fiber, fixed attenuators can be constructed in small batch quantities economically. At the same time the automation aspect of the techniques allows large quantity orders to be manufactured at a reasonable cost.

Attenuating fiber is capable of handling up to 2 W of optical power at 1550 nm. The attenuating section is only a couple of millimetres to a couple of centimeters long, depending on the attenuation. The fiber used in OZ attenuators features a double cladding, with an absorbing dopant in the inner cladding layer. This double cladding structure effectively suppresses light scattering into the cladding. Thus the readings will not significantly depend on the application.

Attenuating patchcords are available with between 0.5 and 20 dB attenuation, in 0.1 dB increments. Higher attenuation levels and higher resolution attenuation steps are possible. Prototype and custom designs can be made quickly and in small volumes economically.

QSMJ High Power SM Patch Cables
Single Mode Patchcords; 200 to 2000 nm; Fiber Type SM High Power; Optional Cooling Fins OZ Optics’ QSMJ series of single mode fiber optic patchcords is specifically designed for high-power applications. These patchcords feature special high-power SM fibers, carefully prepared fiber endfaces and specially designed fiber optic connectors to ensure maximum power handling for your application. In standard connectors the fibers are glued into place, and the fiber is polished flush with the connector ferrule tip. When used with high power lasers, heat generated at the tip of the fiber causes the surrounding epoxy to break down and give off gases. These gases, in turn, burn onto the tip of the fiber, causing catastrophic damage to the fiber and perhaps the entire system. In contrast, OZ Optics’ high-power connectors feature an air-gap design, where the fiber extends into free space by 1.1 to 1.5 mm, providing an epoxy-free region where thermal energy is safely dissipated without burning the surrounding material. OZ Optics offers an adjustable focus feature in both SMA and FC connector designs to allow optimum coupling efficiency, which is critical in high power applications. A unique feature of the adjustable focus connector design is that one can adjust the distance the ferrule and fiber protrudes from the connector housing. The connector also has a built-in residual spring mechanism that allows one to safely connect two fibers together. Our engineers have extensive working knowledge with both continuous output (CW) and pulsed laser applications and can help you select the best system for your application. Please contact AMS Technologies for further assistance.

LDTC LAB Laser Diode Drivers and TEC Temperature Controllers
Output Current LD 2, 5 A; Output Current TEC 5, 10 A; Benchtop or Rack Mount; Compatible with Type A, B & C Lasers  Wavelength Electronics’ LDTC LAB series of instrument type laser diode and TEC temperature controllers combine best-in-class low noise, high-end digital control laser diode driver technology with an IntelliTune® smart TEC temperature controller. If you need stable wavelength, stable temperature (better than 0.0009 °C with thermistors), stable laser diode current or power, or low noise (RMS laser driver noise as low as 7 µA), these offer the best performance and value. Two models are available, the LD2TC5 LAB and the LD5TC10 LAB. The LD2TC5 LAB outputs up to 2 and 5 A for the laser and thermoelectric, respectively. The LD5TC10 LAB outputs up to 5 and 10 A. Both models offer 10 V of laser compliance voltage and 15 V of thermoelectric compliance voltage. The touch-screen interface makes operation intuitive and simple. A LabVIEW® virtual instrument, remote command set, and USB interface allow integration into an instrument library. Operation in Constant Current (CC) or Constant Power (CP) mode changes with the touch of a button. A wide variety of sensors work in the temperature control feedback loop. Safety features protect the thermoelectric cooler (TEC) and the laser. Over- and under-temperature limits on the load, positive and negative (where applicable) current limits, and voltage limits can be set for both TEC and laser. If the sensor signal is lost or a short is detected at the TEC, output current is disabled. Passive and active interlocks are available for safety of equipment and user. Automatic laser shutdown upon TEC error is also available. You can link laser diode current to safe and stable thermoelectric operation. With Wavelength Electronics’ plug and play instrument, you have the ability to quickly set the controls using either the instrument touch screen or a remote computer, and results are easy to monitor. Wavelength Electronics’ proprietary IntelliTune® algorithm characterizes the TEC/sensor system’s response to the controller and determines the optimal PID control coefficients. It then automatically adjusts the PID control values as setpoint, tuning mode, or bias current change. Run IntelliTune® easily just off ambient and watch it change PID settings for a much higher or lower setpoint. After a single scan, explore either optimized Setpoint Response or Disturbance Rejection performance with your load to see which works best. Add or remove the D term to see if noise is an issue.IntelliTune® lets you skip the manual characterization and it’s smart enough to really work—very little adjustment is needed after you have stored a successful characterization scan. See Application Note IntelliTune® vs. Conventional Autotune for an in-depth exploration. An Interlock Kit containing a BNC terminator for the laser interlock and a pre-soldered DSUB to satisfy the laser interlocks is included with the instrument. Loose connectors for custom cable configuration are shipped with the unit. Full cables for both the laser connection and the thermoelectric connection are available. The LDMOUNT-5A, a 14-pin butterfly laser diode mount with integrated heat sinking, is available for simple connections between the LDTC LAB driver and the laser. Free, effective and responsive technical support is available to simplify integration of Wavelength products into your OEM design. Standard products can be easily modified to meet your application requirements. Get in touch with the AMS Technologies laser diode driver experts to discuss your customized solution!

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 dB Toptica 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.
