New Near-Infra-Red Modulators - Lower Vπ , Wider EO-Bandwidth, Higher Optical Input Power | |
13 Aug 2019 LASER COMPONENTS supplies iXblue phase and intensity modulators in the near infrared operating from 760nm to 1150nm with a modulation bandwidth of up to 40GHz. Key features are: high optical input power handling - up to 25dBm HOP option
Higher optical input power handling capability: all near infrared modulators based on a X-cut crystal use Annealed Proton Exchange to avoid photorefractive effects at shorter wavelengths. Based on this new design, iXblue is now offering outstanding performances with higher optical input power handling capability, up to 300mW @1064nm, up to 50mW @850nm, and up to 20mW @780nm. In addition to this, iXblue still offers low insertion loss components. Lower Vπ modulators: the Vπ is reduced by a factor of two and allows higher spectrum broadening modulation efficiency. The newest NIR-MPX-LN-02 (3 GHz bandwidth) has a Vπ < 2V and still handle an input CW of 300mW. Wider EO-bandwidth modulators: iXblue developed a 40GHz amplitude modulator, the NIR-MX-LN-40. The wider electro-optic bandwidth allows the NIR-MX-40 and the NIR-MX800-LN-20 to generate ultrashort sub-ns optical pulses with very short rise times (few picoseconds) and pulses width < 30ps.
