AFR 1 × 2 PM MEMS Optical Switch is based on an electrostatic drived micro-electro-mechanical-system (MEMS) chip. The MEMS Variable Optical Attenuator chip consists of a tilting mirror to change light coupling between input and output fibers. The components are characterized with low insertion loss, high return loss, excellent environmental stability and reliability. The optical switch has been widely used in fiber optics communication equipment, fiber instruments, fiber sensing to switch channels.
AFR provides Hermetic Fiber Feedthrough by hermetically attaching gold plated metal ferrule to fiber cables base on different applications to guarantee excellent hermetic feedthrough performance. SM, MM, PM individual fiber or ribbon fiber available upon request. The hermetic feedthrough is commonly used in PLC module, LD packaging and integrated optics packaging for hermetic sealing purpose.
The ClearCut pulse stretchers are chirped fiber bragg gratings for ultrafast fiber lasers. With AFR's ClearCut design and special process, the devices could provide large dispersion for pulse stretching and performance with outstanding reliability. Custom configurations are available.
The Faraday Mirror is a passive device that provides 90 degree rotation regarding the polarization state of the input light. The FM offers excellent performance including the lowest possible insertion loss and environmental stability. It is used in EDFAs, fiber lasers and fiber instruments to minimize the polarization effect.
