Request InfoFor Telecom DevicesEdmund Optics Inc.BARRINGTON, N.J., Nov. 30, 2007 -- Edmund Optics has introduced new TechSpec NIR (near-infrared) linear polarizers, which it said provide an extended broadband range, making them ideally suited for a multitude of fiber-optic and low-power laser applications such as fiber-optic isolators and couplers for telecommunications. The polarizers are available in two NIR wavelength ranges, from 750-850 nm and from 1000-2000 nm. Measuring 2.0- + 0.2-mm thick, the polarizers are offered with diameters of 12.5 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm and 50 mm in each wavelength range. The TechSpec NIR linear polarizers feature a unique design consisting...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 3/29/2024Electro-Optical ModulatorsThe 65-GHz and 20-GHz Ultra Low Vπ Intensity Modulators from HyperLight are electro-optical modulators based on high-bandwidth and low-voltage thin-film lithium niobate PIC technology for datacom,...Promoted Content February 2023 IssueCustom WL Selective Optical FiltersIridian Spectral Technologies designs and manufactures wavelength selective optical filter solutions providing “more signal, less background”, customized to meet the technical and...Photonics.com 3/8/2023Optical TransceiverSiFotonics Technologies' 400G-ER4-30 QSFP-DD optical transceivers solution enables 400 G transmission over 30 km and is designed in compliance with newly released specifications defined by 100 G...Photonics.com 3/29/2023Electro-Optics PlatformMarvell Technology announced its Nova™ 1.6 Tbps PAM4 electro-optics platform that enables 51.2 Tbps switching for cloud AI/ML and data center network applications.
