Laboratory Laser Modules

LAZ-LAB Series

# #

Overview

iXblue offers a full suite of continuous wave lasers integrated into a compact module. The LAZ-LAB integrates either fiber-coupled distributed feedback diode-based lasers, or very narrow line-width laser based on an ultra-short cavity length using a phase-shifted design.

These high-grade and high-performance lasers are ideal seeders for iXblue modulators and MOPA – Master Oscillator Power Amplifier – configurations.

The LAZ-LAB narrow linewidth single frequency fiber laser: LAZ-LAB-NL-1560

iXblue’s single frequency fiber lasers are based on UV Bragg grating technology applied to active rare-earth photosensitive fibers.

Integrated into a carefully designed module using in-house ultra-stable pump drivers, this solution delivers a stable single frequency laser line with ultra-low intrinsic noise and linewidth smaller than 0.1 kHz.

The LAZ-LAB semi-conductor-based laser: LAZ-LAB-NIR

iXblue has selected fiber-coupled laser-diodes that pair well with iXblue LiNbO3 modulators. The key parameters for optimal performance are the optical power, the wavelength value and its stability, the polarization orientation, and the laser linewidth.

These lasers diodes were tested by iXblue to match perfectly with our modulators to ensure their highest performance, and they were also qualified for their reliability and high quality.
