Description

Fiber Pigtailed Free Space Interferometer

The free spectral range (FSR) or zero-cross spacing of the device is accurately defined to within 2%, a clear advantage over the all-fiber approach. In addition, the FSR can be selected from 10 GHz to as high as 100 GHz when ordering, making it flexible for system integration. Finally, the MZI-001s free-space optical design eliminates the polarization sensitivity commonly associated with all-fiber interferometers. 

Features:

  • Compact size
  • Accurate free spectral range

  • Polarization insensitive
  • Fine optical frequency spacing
  • Balanced photodetectors

Applications:

  • Wavelength swept light source
  • Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)
  • Fiber optic sensor
  • Test & measurement
  • Spectrum analysis
  • Coherent detection systems
