1um Femtosecond Pulsed Fiber Laser
Calmar Optcom's FPL-M1U is a 1μm seed laser module and FPL-M2U is an amplified version of FPL-M1U with optical power >20mW. The most compact optical pulse generators, FPL-M1U and FPL-M2U are air-cooled and shockproof. They can be either used as stand-alond laser sources with 1 +5VDC power supply (or a separate driver), or as OEM modules to be integrated into end-user's application systems. Both modules are passively mode-locked fiber lasers, feature wide range of pulse widths, wavelengths, and high output power.

FPL-M1U has transform-limited pulse shape with low pedestals. The timing jitter from the module is less than 100fs. It can generate optical pulses in the range of 0.3~10ps. The optical wavelength can be customized throughout the range of 1.03~1.07μm.

As stand-alone laser sources, FPL-M1U and FPL-M2U are simple to operate. With the built-in electronic driver, they self-start and are remotely controllable. In addition, the built-in RF synchronization output provides tigger signals. As the result, the operation is turn-key and requires neither external RF source nor warm-up.

Due to the small form factor and ruggedized design, FPL-M1U and FPL-M2U are ideal for maintenance free OEM appliations. We can customize the interface to allow direct system integration with no requirement for adjustment.
