FC1500-250 Optical Frequency Synthesizer
Frequency comb technology makes direct measurement of absolute optical frequencies possible. The FC1500 Optical Frequency Synthesizer is a compact, portable and flexible fiber-based femtosecond frequency comb system. With the extension package to the visible spectral range, the system provides a stabilized optical frequency comb for frequency metrology in both the visible and the near infrared regions of the spectrum. A wide range of optional units enables us to tailor this versatile system to customer specific metrology solutions.
Advanced Features and Benefits
- accuracy 10-14 or same as reference, whichever applies first
- stability 5x10-13 in 1 sec. or same as reference, whichever applies first
- high repetition rate
- operational range from 500 nm to 2 µm
- extended offset frequency tuning range
- fiber-coupled solutions
- turnkey metrology system, fully automated with comb control and data acquisition software
The FC1500-250 with 250 MHz mode spacing is the latest generation of our fiber based systems. The high repetition rate offers the multiple advantages of larger spacing between the comb modes and higher optical power per mode. The preceding 100 MHz model is still available; please contact us for more information.
