16 May 2011 The new MX2000-LN and MPX2000-LN series from Photline Technologies are optical modulators specifically designed for operation in the 2µm wavelength band. These new intensity and phase modulators offer the same benefits as their classic 1550nm counterparts, namely; high modulation bandwidth, compact, low insertion loss, low drive voltage, and reliability. They incorporate 2µm waveguides and are pigtailed with 2µm polarisation maintaining fibres.
The MX2000-LN-01 intensity modulator is primarily, but not exclusively, intended for lidar applications where it is used in combination with thulium fibre lasers to generate short optical pulses with high extinction ratio. More generally, the 2µm modulators find applications in lidars, gas sensing and spectroscopy.
Thanks to this latest addition, Photline Technologies is offering the most comprehensive portfolio of commercial LiNbO3 modulation solutions, from 800nm to 2µm and for a broad range of applications.
