Diode pumped solid state laser (DPSS)
JDSU
The NPRO 125/126 lasers are used for a variety of applications including fiberoptic sensing, coherent communications, remote antenna links, optical heterodyne, lidar oscillators, and passive sonar.
At the heart of each NPRO 125/126 laser is JDSU's unique, monolithic, NPRO laser cavity delivering true single-frequency laser output. Since its initial development in 1985, NPRO technology has demonstrated a record of reliability and top-level performance.
Amplitude noise for a typical NPRO 125/126 laser is <0.05% rms over the range from 10 Hz to 2 MHz, and less than -165 dB/Hz above 10 MHz (shot noise limited). This performance is achieved by combining an inherently quiet laser oscillator with a noise reduction circuit which effectively eliminates the laser's natural relaxation oscillation.
NPRO lasers are built in a compact, OEM-friendly package. All necessary control electronics are onboard the laser head allowing for easy integration with existing systems or new product platforms.
