Elliot Scientific will be offering the Orbits Lightwave "Ethernal SlowLight" ultra-narrow (200 Hz) linewidth 1064 nm and 1550 nm fibre lasers, in powers up to 200 mW, to OEMs and researchers in the UK and Ireland. Powers of 2 W, 5 W and 10 W are coming soon.
The systems are housed in hermetically-sealed athermal modules that minimise frequency drift with respect to temperature and dispense with the need for energy consuming temperature control. This novel packaging technology also greatly reduces susceptibility to shock and vibration by five orders of magnitude.
Orbits Lightwave Inc. have a incorporated a range of technologies, both licensed and developed over the past 10 years in-house with assistance from NASA and DARPA, into lasers that demonstrate unprecedented levels of stability and reliability under demanding industrial or military conditions.
Orbits Lightwave's breakthrough technology, the "virtual ring" laser oscillator, enables travelling wave and slow light oscillation in a compact, linear, all-fibre cavity to realise higher power, ultra low FM and AM noise performance, and a higher sidemode suppression ratio. It also effectively increases the cavity lifetime.
These class leading fibre laser modules have a broad range of applications including security, metrology and communications. Elliot Scientific is ready to advise OEMs on model choice as up to 10 different powers are available along with numerous tuning range options.
