The Luna PHOENIXTM 1000, built upon the
former lolon swept tunable platform, offers
superior performance and noise reduction.
KEY FEATURES AND PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
•
Full C-band tunability
TUNABLE LASER SOURCE
(Model PHOENIXTM 1000)
Luna’s PHOENIXTM 1000 Swept Laser Module is a
tunable laser with an optical fiber coupled output. The
laser is a miniaturized, tunable external cavity laser
offering high performance in a compact footprint. The
Phoenix 1000 was designed with systems integration
in mind and is well-suited to a range of fiber optic test,
measurement and sensing instrumentation. The small
form factor layout is compatible with high-volume
manufacturing and is housed in a compact 18-pin,
TEC-cooled package that provides improved
scalability, ruggedness and speed compared to similar
tunable lasers.
