AFR's MEMS Variable Optical Attenuator 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, fast response and compact size. The MEMS Variable Optical Attenuator is widely uesd in WDM networks, power control or gain variation in EDFA.
The High Power ClearCut Fiber Bragg Grating products are low insertion loss fiber bragg gratings for high power fiber lasers. With AFR's ClearCut design and packaging, the FBG can handle kilowatt level pump power and signal power. Custom configurations are available.
The 1064 nm Polarization Maintaining Isolator is a micro optics device with low insertion loss, high isolation, high return loss, high extinction ratio and excellent environmental stability and reliability. This fiber isolator is ideal for amplifiers, fiber lasers and test instrument applications.
AFR high bandwidth zero-chirp F10 modulators are based on the Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) architecture. They are manufactured using the highly reliable titanium indiffusion technology in X-Cut, Y-Propagating LiNbO3 substrates. The F10 is a single drive modulator designed for high bit rate advanced metro to long haul communication systems that requires the superior performance. The F10 modulator contains an integrated photo detector that may be used to set and lock the DC bias on the modulator as well as provide an estimate of the modulator output optical power.
The High Power (18+1)×1 Pump & Signal Combiner enables highly efficient combining of the powers from up to 18 multimode pump diodes and a signal laser into a double cladding output fiber.The pump and signal combiner can handle more than 1 kW combined power. Available for different fiber types.
