The NIR-MPX800 series compliments the family of phase modulators from Photline. In recent months there has been a significant increase of customer orders, for applications including: quantum optics, fibre sensors, interferometric based sensors and frequency shifting.
With Photline’s proton exchange waveguide process, the NIR-MPX800 exhibits superior stability and power handling capacity for these low frequency to 10 GHz, low Vπ and insertion loss modulators.
The NIR-MPX800-LN-0.1 series performance highlights include 150 MHz electro-optical bandwidth with 2V Vπ RF @50 kHz, the NIR-MPX800-LN-05 series performance highlights include 5GHz electro-optical bandwidth with 5V Vπ RF @50 kHz, and the NIR-MPX800-LN-10 series performance highlights include 12GHz electro-optical bandwidth with 7V Vπ RF @50 kHz, with all units boasting 4dB insertion loss [based on 850 nm at 25ºC].
Absolute maximum ratings include: ±20V modulation range, 13 dBm optical input power, 0ºC to 70ºC operating temperature and –40ºC to 85ºC storage temperature.
Options include: hermetic sealing, 20 GHz version, 1060 nm and 1300 nm versions.
