The JDSU SWS15101 tunable laser source can be used as a standalone unit or as a component of JDS single-phase swept wavelength system (SWS).
The cavity in the SWS15101 adjustable laser source is automatically aligned, which is a key feature of long-term stability.
An extremely smooth scan of more than 100 nm was obtained with a resolution of 1 pm in two seconds, thus realizing true continuous adjustability.
The CNC analog fine-tuning function extends the resolution to the MHz domain beyond 1 pm step.
The 65 nm operating range is not affected by any mode jumps, ensuring smooth and accurate wavelength scanning, which enables reliable testing of narrowband components.
In the entire spectral range, the output power in the 65 nm and -3 dBm range is greater than 0 dBm.
Self-aligned optical layout, single moving parts design and full Invar structure ensure long-term stability.
The keyboard and display are optimized for natural, clear laboratory operation.
You can key in all the parameters, or use the multi-speed rotation control to adjust.
Analog and digital modulation of optical power from DC to 1 GHz offers a variety of modulation possibilities.
The cavity is designed to allow mode-locked operation at approximately 5 GHz.
When high coherence becomes a problem, the line width of 100 kHz can be reduced to 100 MHz.
Computer interface and analog input and output enable complete remote operation and simplify system integration.
