Fiber Coupled Fast Tunable Laser MEMS/VCSEL – 1550nm

SKU: TVSE

The TVCS series of fiber-coupled tunable lasers combines an electrically movable MEMS mirror with a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL), providing a cost-effective single-mode laser source with fast wavelength tuning capability. The wavelength sweep is mode hopping-free, ensuring smooth operation. The compact design integrates an optical isolator and TEC cooler for enhanced stability. It is available with single-mode, polarization-maintaining (PM), or multimode fiber. This device is ESD-sensitive and requires mounting on a heat sink. A dedicated driver is available, offering stable laser output, 10kHz fast wavelength sweep, and digital laser modulation up to GHz.The TVCS can be driven at or beyond resonance, with resonance frequencies ranging from 250 to 320 kHz, depending on the batch.
For higher output power, up to 1W in both single-mode (SM) and polarization-maintaining (PM) configurations, we offer integration with an erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA), which also provides output intensity stability through a precision feedback control loop.
