Polarization in optical fiber is a much more complicated subject than the free space counterpart. Likewise, measurement and control of polarization in optical fiber requires much more complex and sensitive tools than when dealing with free space polarization. Newport Corporation’s 25xxP Series Polarization Instruments are designed and manufactured specifically for the former. In this application note, for each product, after a brief introduction to each instrument is given, followed by a sample application Newport’s new, state of the art polarization control and measurement instrumentation portfolio provides you with the tools to control, stabilize, measure, and analyze polarization in fiber-optic based applications. The complete line-up includes seven products with industry-leading performances: low insertion loss, low cost, high speed, and wide operating wavelength ranges. Products & Services
Polarization rotators maneuver incident-linearly-polarized light about an optical axis.
Optical isolators are optical devices that allow light to be transmitted in only one direction. They are most often used to prevent any light from reflecting back down the fiber, as this light would enter the source and cause feedback problems.
Fiber optic couplers are optical devices that connect three or more fiber ends, dividing one input between two or more outputs, or combining two or more inputs into one output.
Fiber optic circulators are nonreciprocal devices that direct a light signal from one port, via a fiber optic line, to another sequentially.
Fiber optic filters allow only specific wavelengths to pass into a larger fiber optic system.
