AFR's MEMS Optical Switch is based on an electrostatic drived micro-electro-mechanical-system (MEMS) chip. The MEMS 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 swtich has been widely used in fiber optics communication equipment, fiber instruments, and fiber sensing to switch channels.
The PMFCM series is manufactured by using advanced technology to allow the input signal to be split into multiple channels at a given splitting ratio with high extinction ratio, low excess loss, good uniformity, low WDL and low TDL. It can be widely used in fiber sensors, amplifiers, various laser applications, etc.
The RC Fiber Faraday Mirror is a passive device that provides 90 degree rotation without regarding to the polarization state of the input light. The RCFM offers excellent performance including the lowest possible insertion loss and environmental stability. It is used in compact optical amplifier, DWDM systems, sensors, compact optical circuits and other fiber optic communication equipment to minimize the polarization effect.
The 1064 nm Polarization Beam Combiner/Splitter is a compact, high performance lightwave component that combines two orthogonal polarization signals into one output fiber. The most common application is to combine the light of two pump lasers into one single fiber by doubling pump power. The typical configuration uses two PM fibers as input and SM fiber as output. The device can also be used as a beam splitter.
