Submarine system developers are racing to deploy networks that perform at maximum power and reliability. To meet those somewhat inversely related needs, industry leaders have worked to qualify 980-nm laser diodes for use in undersea systems. In the year ahead, two major submarine system developers will roll out amplifier modules with the 980-nm laser diodes. Tyco Submarine Systems Ltd. is first off the line with a $150 million purchase of laser pump modules from Lucent Technologies' Microelectronics Group in Allentown, Pa. Alcatel Submarine Networks in London also expects to deploy the 980-nm...Read full article
