Ultra-high wavelength accuracy, repeatability and stability, stable output power

TopLight's tunable laser source ensures that the wavelength accuracy of the light source can reach ±20pm through precise electromechanical control. The repeatability and stability of the wavelength remain reliable even during high-speed scanning.

In different test environments, TopLight can also compensate for environmental changes to ensure stable and reliable wavelength accuracy.

The output power of the light source is strictly fitted to the wavelength correlation to ensure that the flatness of the power curve is higher than 0.2dB/nm, reducing the error caused by power to the test system.


High output spectrum signal-to-noise ratio and side mode suppression ratio

TopLight uses the principle of external activity response to tune the wavelength, and through precision optical and electrical control systems, guarantees that the narrow linewidth laser output from the resonant activity always has good signal to noise ratio and edge mode compression ratio, in order to achieve rigorous control

The wavelength scanning system provides Excel testing environment and conditions

Realize uniform and no mode hopping across the entire wavelength range, ensuring continuous wavelength curves

The integration capability of opto electromechanical computing in Dimension Technology provides reliable assurance for the mode control of tunable light sources Through precision control and algorithms, TopLight can ensure ultra high scanning speed and wavelength accuracy before

Please confirm that the last always outputs the dominant wavelength of the main mode, and the test can be completed without the need for wavelength calibration components during scanning&Nbsp;
