Light Source
-
A light source essentially is an optical transmitter that is paired with an optical receiver, both of which are connected to electrically based devices or systems. So, the source converts electrons to photons and the detector converts photons to electrons.

In-Process Test OTDR
8000i
-
The 8000i In-Process Test OTDR is the most recent addition to Photon Kinetics' family of innovative solutions for optical fiber cable testing. The 8000i's "cable test optimization" provides the balance of OTDR dynamic range and dead zone performance that's proven to be most effective for accurate characterization of typical fiber cable lengths. Dynamic range has been maximized to reduce measurement time, while resolution has been tuned to ensure that typical cabled fiber defects are detected. The 8000i delivers this optimized measurement capability at a more economical price than our full featured, final QC 8000 OTDR, which makes it a perfect fit for "in-process" testing on ribbonizing or loose tube production lines.

Bare Fiber Aligner
1120
-
The Photon Kinetics 1120 Bare Fiber Aligner makes it possible to reduce test setup time to seconds, thereby reducing overall testing cost. Just strip the fiber, scribe and break it (or use a more precise fiber cleaver, if desired) and then insert the prepared end into the 1120. In an instant, the fiber is coupled to your OTDR or chromatic dispersion test system with low optical loss and low reflectance. The 1120's compact, ergonomic industrial design is well-suited for low to moderate volume fiber and cable testing applications where automated fiber alignment systems are less economical. It is particularly useful as part of an in-process or finished cable test station employing either the 8000i or 8000 OTDR, and the OASYS.net OTDR Automation Software.

TOPTICA's iChrome CLE is a compact laser engine that combines four laser lines in one box. All integrated colors are provided via one polarization-maintaining single-mode fiber. It is available with 405, 488, 561 and 640 nm and more than 20 mW guaranteed output power after the fiber each. The system guarantees a plug & play installation since it includes TOPTICA's proprietary COOLAC automatic alignment technology. This way the system is ready-to-use after one simple button click. 561 nm laser light is generated by TOPTICAs proprietary FDDL technology. Each laser line can be directly modulated up to a frequency of 1 MHz and TOPTICA's "Complete OFF" mechanism guarantees zero photons in the "off"-state.

Random Number Generation
-
Quantis is a family of hardware random number generators (RNG) which exploit elementary quantum optical processes as a source of true randomness (cf. Wikipedia: physical phenomena with quantum random properties). Photons (light particles) are sent, one by one, onto a semi-transparent mirror and detected. The exclusive events (reflection or transmission) are associated to “0” or “1” bit values. Such quantum processes provide instantaneous and inexhaustible entropy.

Raman Spectroscopy
-
Raman is a spectroscopic technique that uses laser light to interact with molecular excitations and determine what a substance or element is composed of. It relies upon the inelastic scattering of photons which produces a weak signal, making the collection of information challenging particularly when the substance to be measured is at distance or can only be given short exposure times. Our Raman spectrometers are particularly effective at making Raman measurements due to their configuration which delivers a higher throughput/etendue than standard instruments.

Photonic Hall Effect
HMS7000

Classic hall effect measurement system is to read voltage difference made between both diagonal sides, when flowing current and applying magnet field strength, in perpendicular to flowing current direction. - Photonic hall effect measurement is to read various electrical properties by illuminating light of “various range of wavelength” on the sample, in addition to flowing current and applying magnet field strength. - It is great to see “RGB (Red, Green, Blue), Light intensity vs carrier density, carrier mobility, resistivity, hall coefficient”
