General Descriptions
The NIR-MX-LN series are an intensity modulator especially designed for operation in the 1000 nm wavelength band.
This Mach-Zehnder modulator offers engineers working in the 1000 nm the intrinsic and unparalleled benefits of LiNbO3 external modulation : high bandwidth, high contrast up to 30 dB and beyond, ease of use. Thanks to iXBlue Technologies proprietary waveguide process, the NIR-MX-LN exhibits a stable behaviour and supports several tens mW of input optical power.
Features
- High extinction ratio: >30dB
- X-cut for high stability
- Low insertion loss, Low Vπ
- High optical power handling
Applications
- Carrie suppression
- Pulse generation / picking
- Fiber optics sensors
- Pulse applications
- Analog transmission
