Our new modular tunable laser package has the best wavelength accuracy and resolution in the industry, said Brian Soller, executive vice president and general manager of Luna Technologies. This laser provides the precision and accuracy required for the most challenging applications in a small and easy-to-integrate package. It is an excellent choice for applications with demanding precision requirements such as fiber optic test systems, inertial navigational systems, laser ranging, spectroscopy in the near IR, and distributed sensing for stress and strain measurement.

The PHOENIX 1200 tunable external cavity laser device is driven by a circuit designed for low noise and highly linear swept performance with a mode-hop-free tuning range of 1515 nm – 1565 nm. The PHOENIX 1200 also is a miniaturized, internal NIST-traceable wavemeter, giving it the highest accuracy available while maintaining its compact footprint. The package consists of a software development kit and USB interface that allow for easy customization of applications in development and manufacturing environments.

Luna’s laser line is on the basis of former Iolon ‘Apollo’ class of tunable lasers, acquired by Luna. The PHOENIX 1200 tunable laser module is the third product in Luna’s laser platform.
