Description
Overview
The Quantifi Photonics Laser 1000 Series is a continuous wave (CW) tunable laser source designed for telecommunications and optical testing applications. Available in compact MATRIQ benchtop or modular PXIe formats, it offers exceptional performance with 0.01 pm tuning resolution, narrow 100 kHz linewidth, and up to 16.5 dBm output power across C or L bands.
This fully-compliant micro-ITLA laser supports up to four channels in a single form factor, with optional whisper mode for applications requiring the narrowest possible linewidth. The instrument can be controlled via SCPI commands, Python and LabVIEW drivers, or an intuitive web-based GUI, making it suitable for both lab development and production testing environments.
Key Features
- Full C-band or L-band tunability with 0.01 pm tuning resolution
- Narrow 100 kHz linewidth for demanding coherent communication applications
- High power output up to 16.5 dBm with enhanced power uniformity across channels
- Multi-channel support: 1, 2, or 4 channels in a single instrument
- Polarization-maintaining fiber output with standard industry connectors
- Optional whisper mode to disable frequency dither for narrowest linewidth operation
- Fully programmable via SCPI, Python, LabVIEW drivers, and web-based GUI
- USB or Ethernet connectivity for simple setup and operation
Applications
- Coherent optical transceiver development and testing
- Optical component development and testing
- Fiber optic transmission testing
- Local oscillator for coherent transmit and receive transceivers
- WDM / DWDM channel loading stress testing
- Silicon photonic wafer and waveguide testing
- EDFA optical amplifier testing
- Photonic Doppler Velocimetry (PDV) applications
- Interferometry and medical imaging applications
- High-performance computing with optical interconnects
Specifications
| Full Tunability across C Band or L Band | Ideal for telecommunications applications; full coverage of DWDM channels. |
| Smarter Calibration for Enhanced Power Uniformity | Minimize inter-channel power variance with enhanced power uniformity between channels. |
| 0.01pm Tuning Resolution | Tune to anywhere within C or L band with a high 0.01pm tuning resolution. |
| Narrow 100kHz Linewidth, up to 16.5 dBm of Power | High stability 100kHz linewidth makes it an ideal candidate for some of the most demanding applications, such as coherently modulated high-speed communications. |
| Polarization Maintaining Output | The slow axis of polarization is aligned with the output connector key as per industry standards. The user may choose to use polarization maintaining (PM) fiber or standard singlemode fiber (SMF). |
| Powerful Software Controls | The Laser 1000 Series is fully programmable via industry standard SCPI protocols and drivers are available for Python and LabVIEW. It also comes with an easy-to-use GUI that can be used on any device with a modern web browser. |
| USB or Ethernet Operation | Connect via USB or Ethernet for simple setup and operation. |
| Excellent Measurement Correlation with our Optical PXI Modules | Shared product architecture lets you validate your system and test requirements in the lab with the benchtop version, and scale up to high-volume automated production testing with the Laser 1000 Series PXIe module. |
