Simply Better ™ Photonics Tunable External Cavity Diode Lasers Tunable External Cavity Diode Lasers (ECDL) are employed in many applications, including coherent optical telecommunications, atomic and molecular laser spectroscopy, laser cooling, atomic clocks, environmental sensing, and optical microcavities. Aside from tunability, these applications often require narrow linewidth single mode operation. Semiconductor diode lasers typically operate with several longitudinal modes lasing simultaneously, leading to low coherence and large linewidths. One method of extracting highly coherent...

Simply Better ™ Photonics Redesign of the Velocity® Laser Our engineers have completely redesigned the Velocity laser. While the same Littman / Metcalf design of the laser cavity is utilized, we’ve implemented heavier housing, thicker insulation, more power temperature control, and introduced our unique Magnetic Dampening to the 6700 Velocity. This means we can now bring you higher power output but with an even further reduced linewidth. That’s more power with even greater precision. SMA port Magnet Diode Diode Integrated fiber coupling Grating External fiber coupling OI attaches to housing...

Tunable Diode Lasers Vortex™ Fine-Frequency Tunable Lasers Evolution of Excellence Introduced in 1996, the Vortex 6000 Series Tunable Lasers offered narrow-linewidth and low-noise performance built to our customer’s wavelength specification. Based on a proven monolithic design, there were no adjustable components that could become misaligned over time. The laser cavity and drive electronics were designed to provide maximum frequency-modulation capabilities, allowing for modulation above the frequency of mechanical-noise sources. In 2002, New Focus partnered with NASA’s Jet Propulsion...
