Where to Buy Single-frequency Lasers

Various kinds of single-frequency lasers can generate light with a very narrow linewidth. Some of them are suitable for long-term stable operation with high frequency stability and no mode hops. Possible applications are in interferometry (e.g. holography), laser spectroscopy (e.g. LIDAR) and optical communications. High-power single-frequency sources are required for applying coherent beam combining techniques.

The Koheras narrow linewidth, single-frequency fiber lasers are ultra-low noise sources with longitudinal single mode and single frequency operation. The lasers are based on a DFB design ensuring robust and reliable operation and are delivered as fully integrated systems for industrial and scientific applications. Koheras offers an unprecedented low phase- and intensity noise level at Yb, Er and Tm wavelengths. It has a very high stability, and mode-hop free inherent single frequency output – even when exposed to changing environmental conditions. You can also get shot noise limited solutions for applications demanding an extra low intensity noise level.

single-frequency lasers

The HI-Q™ Laser houses a proprietary driver/controller and the OEwaves laser source, which is based on a high quality factor (Q) Whispering Gallery Mode (WGM) micro-resonator. The laser is scalable to a variety of wavelengths in 370-–4500 nm.

The unique technology of the OEwaves HI-Q™ Laser leverages the self-injection on locking of a suitable commercially available laser diode via a resonant optical feedback from a high-Q WGM micro-resonator. Its monolithically integrated approach along with micro-scale mass and volume make the laser virtually insensitive to environmental vibrations .

Features:

- ultra-narrow instantaneous laser linewidth

- ultra-low phase/frequency noise

- 370–4500 nm wavelength

- low vibration sensitivity

- low residual amplitude modulation

- wavelength stability

- compact package

- integrated driver/controller

- USB or RS232 control interface

Applications:

- interferometric optical sensing

- LIDAR

- B-OTDR temperature and strain

- gas sensing

- optical metrology and spectroscopy

- acoustic sensing

- oil and gas exploration

- coherent communication

- test and measurement
