The OFD system smartly delivers a voltage signal that is proportional to the frequency fluctuations of the input laser beam. This turn-key module is suitable for laser frequency noise characterization and/or for laser frequency stabilization to drastically reduce its optical “full width at half maximum” linewidth. The OFD features ultralow noise performances, successfully achieving a frequency noise level as low as 0.01 Hz2/Hz. All this in a compact and user-friendly package.
Typical result of a beat note measured at ~14.5 GHz, when two telecom lasers are free-running (top figure) and locked (bottom figure), respectively.
The functional diagram is a simple view of what the instrument does. It enables a fast and simple understanding of the internal functionalities in respect to the system inputs and outputs.
The dimensions of the device are presented here with a simplified view. It also shows the connections from the front and back view of the instrument.
