| Description
FFP-I
The Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometer (FFP-I) family of products
is based on a fixed interferometer design with smooth, uniformly
spaced transmission peaks. The FFP-I consists of a lensless
plane Fabry-Perot interferometer with a single-mode optical
fiber waveguide between two highly reflective multilayer
mirrors. The FFP-I is manufactured with fiber pigtails so
no alignment or mode-matching is required. The distances
between peaks (FSR) may be fit exactly to customer specifications
and a TEC package is available for thermal stability and
minor adjustments of the bandpass frequency or wavelength.
 
FFP-ITU
An FFP-ITU is a specially constructed FFP-I that aligns
to the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) grid
with 25, 50 or 100 GHz spacing. Grid spacings are available
with tolerances of +/-0.5%, +/-0.2%, +/-0.1%, or +/-0.05%
for more exact alignment with the ITU grid. The FFP-ITU
has a built-in thermo electric controller (TEC) package
for thermal stability, and can be controlled by Micron Optics'
TEC controller. Also, a complete Micron Optics ITU WDM Emulator
is available that includes an ASE source as well as two
FFP-ITU filters and two TEC controllers.
picoWave®
The picoWave®
is Micron Optics' patented multi-wavelength reference that
enables real time wavelength calibration to picometer accuracy.
Combining the uniform spacing of the FFP-I, a wavelength
marker of a Fiber Bragg Grating, and a built-in TEC for
thermal stability, the picoWave®
makes an ideal calibrated wavelength reference.
TEC Controller
The Micron Optics picoWave Controller is designed to be
used in conjunction with the Micron Optics' picoWave®,
FFP-ITU and Fiber Fabry-Perot Interferometer (FFP-I), where
temperature stability is critical for wavelength reference
stability.
