Narrow-Linewidth High Power DFB Laser
Product Manual V2.0
FXDFB-100K is built around the 100 kHz linewidth class and features single-longitudinal-mode output, low sensitivity to environmental vibration, and mode-hop-free behavior. |
|
Product Overview:
The 100kHz narrow-linewidth high-power DFB laser combines narrow linewidth, high output power, and low phase noise, making it suitable as a core light source for distributed fiber sensing and coherent measurement systems. It operates in the 1550nm/1.5um communication band and can provide 100mW (+20dBm) class optical output.
Key Features:
• 100kHz-class narrow linewidth helps improve coherent detection and Brillouin sensing performance.
• 100mW (+20dBm) high output power supports long-distance links and high-power-budget applications.
• Low phase noise and stable operation support engineering integration and long-term use.
Applications:
• BOTDA/BOTDR distributed temperature and strain fiber sensing light source.
• DVS distributed vibration fiber sensing, coherent detection, and beat-note measurement.
• Coherent wind LiDAR, precision optical measurement, and laboratory narrow-linewidth light sources.
