Broad Spectrum Light Sources

Broad spectrum light sources for optical fibers. The first is an ultra-wide spectrum laser source that ranges from 450nm to 2500nm. The second is a 1260nm wideband optical light source at 1650nm. These optical light sources can be used to test optical components such as Bragg gratings, long-period Bragg gratings and other passive components. The optical light source can also be used to probe, for biomedical, tomography, metrology, microscopy and other industrial applications.

Super-Wideband light source 1250 - 1650nm

Discription :

Amonics’ ALS-CWDM Super-Wideband light source provides high spectral density, at above -30dBm/nm, across 1250nm to 1650nm. That makes this source the ideal tool for the characterization of CWDM components and communication links in one easy step. This broadband source is also extremely effective in high resolution optical coherent tomography(OCT) applications. In the benchtop unit, the output power, alarms and driving current values are shown on the LCD display. Output power can be adjusted by tuning the front panel control knob. Also active emission button is used to enhance operation safety.
