Most single frequency fiber lasers are not designed with size or power consumption in mind. They perform well on a bench. They are harder to justify when the system needs to be portable, battery-operated, or integrated into a compact instrument.
This laser is different. At 100 × 90 × 25 mm and 6 W power consumption, it is the smallest single frequency fiber laser in Techwin’s range. It operates across the 1030 to 1080 nm Ytterbium band with sub-100 kHz linewidth, M² below 1.05, and PM980 fiber output with 20 dB polarization extinction ratio. Output power is fixed at 40 mW with RMS stability below 0.2%.
Built for portable sensing instruments, medical and bio-imaging systems, coherent communication modules, and any OEM application where board space, weight, and power draw are real constraints alongside optical performance.
PRODUCT FEATURES REWRITE
- Compact OEM Form Factor: 100 × 90 × 25 mm — The smallest single frequency module in the Techwin range. Fits directly into portable instrument enclosures and handheld device designs where a standard 175 × 140 mm laser module would not.
- 6 W Power Consumption — Low enough for battery-powered portable systems and thermally constrained instrument designs. No active cooling required under normal operating conditions.
- Sub-100 kHz Linewidth, M² Below 1.05 — Single longitudinal mode CW output at sub-100 kHz linewidth with near-perfect beam quality. RIN below -130 dBc/Hz at 5 MHz and RMS power stability below 0.2% support sensing and imaging applications where noise performance matters.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS REWRITE
- Precision Measurement and Portable Sensing — Field-deployed sensing instruments, handheld interferometers, and compact fiber sensing interrogators all have size and power constraints that full-size laser modules cannot meet. This laser fits those form factor requirements without trading away the linewidth and noise performance precision sensing demands.
- Medical and Bio-Imaging — Optical coherence tomography probes, confocal microscopy systems, and biomedical imaging instruments require compact, low-power laser sources that can be integrated into clinical instruments without adding bulk or heat. The 1030 to 1080 nm Ytterbium band provides good tissue penetration for near-infrared imaging applications.
- Coherent Communication — Short-reach coherent optical links, lab-on-chip coherent systems, and research setups evaluating coherent modulation formats at 1 µm require a compact, stable single-frequency source. This laser provides single longitudinal mode CW output in PM980 fiber at a power level suited to direct modulator input.
