Description

The Micron Optics FFP-I, Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometer, is a fixed interferometer with uniformly spaced transmission peaks. It features a lensless plane design with a single-mode optical fiber waveguide between two highly reflective mirrors. The design eliminates the need for alignment or mode-matching. The Free Spectral Range (FSR) can be customized, and a TEC package is available for thermal stability and minor adjustments.

picoWave®

The picoWave® is a patented multi-wavelength reference for real-time wavelength calibration with picometer accuracy. It combines the FFP-I's uniform frequency spacing, a Fiber Bragg Grating wavelength marker, and a built-in TEC for thermal stability. Configurations include Series or Parallel setups.

Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometers, FFP-I and picoWave-1

Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometer FFP-I • Spectrum Sliced Source • Calibrated Wavelength Reference • Laser Stabilization • Optical Sensing The Micron Optics FFP-I, Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometer family of products is based on a fixed interferometer design with smooth, uniformly spaced transmission peaks. The FFP-I consists of a lensless plane Fabry-Perot Interferometer with a single-mode optical fiber waveguide between two highly reflective multilayer mirrors. The FFP-I is manu- factured directly with optical fibers so no alignment or mode-matching is required. The distances between peaks (FSR) may be designed exactly to customer specifications and a TEC package is available for thermal stability and minor adjustments of the bandpass • Uniformly spaced transmission peaks • Small footprint • Vibration and shock resistant FFP-I, FFP-ITU, p/coWave® The p/coWave® is Micron Optics' patented multi-wavelength reference that enables real time wavelength calibration to picometer accuracy. Combining the uniform frequency spacing of the FFP-I, a wavelength marker of a Fiber Bragg Grating, and a built-in TEC for thermal stability, the p/coWave® makes an ideal calibrated wavelength reference. The FFP-I and FBG can be configured in Series or in Parallel (see diagrams below) p/coWave® (Serial Configuration) p/coWave® (Parallel Configuration) TUNED Products displaying the " Micron OpticsTuned" logo include Micron Optics tunable technologies insuring high quality and performance
