Polarization & Phase Control

Fiber Inline Polarizer

The In-line Polarizer is designed to pass light with one specific polarization while blocking the other polarization. It can be used to convert non-polarized light into polarized light with a high extinction ratio. It can also be used to enhance the extinction ratio of signals with its polarization properties. We offer all possible fiber coupling combinations: PM to PM, SM to PM, SM to SM. High power version is also available in which a third port is added to guide the unwanted light out. Our design minimizes component assembly costs and module footprint while increasing stability over a wide temperature and wavelength ranges.

Application context

Why this design is used

Application guidance is tied to the configured wavelength, fiber interface and optical-budget fields for this family.

Laboratory optical integration

Fiber Inline Polarizer: Laboratory optical integration depends on preserving the optical budget through the complete path. The 1060, 1310, 1420, 1550, 980, 850, 780, 650, 550, 450, 400, Special wavelength specification sets source and detector compatibility. The fiber/interface entry (SMF-28, PM 1550, PM1310, Hi1060, Special) must match the connected components.

Integration and compatibility

Use these checks to connect Fiber Inline Polarizer to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.

Optical interface and fiber
Input Fiber: SMF-28, PM 1550, PM1310, Hi1060, Special · Output Fiber: PM 1550, PM1310, PM1060, Special
Specify connector polish and fiber architecture together. FC/PC, FC/APC and SMA interfaces, and single-mode, multimode and polarization-maintaining fibers, impose different return-loss, mode-field and alignment requirements.
Wavelength and loss budget
Wavelength (nm): 1060, 1310, 1420, 1550, 980, 850, 780, 650, 550, 450, 400, Special
Check the Polarization & Phase Control passband, insertion loss, return loss and power handling at the actual source wavelength; a nominal telecom-band label is not a substitute for the configured range.
