Optical alignment system MDE22885

optical device

The MDE22885 is a specialised system for the alignment of SOAs (semiconductor optical amplifiers) and other similar dual-ended devices with angled facets. The system comprises two 5-axis stages with Elliot Gold™ Series flexure stages, long-travel base platforms and a 2-axis fibre rotation mount. The central unit is a 2-axis rotation device mount configured for mounting of passive or active single- or multi-channel planar devices. The linear axes of the flexure stages can be automated with an E2300 DAli 3 alignment controller and piezo adjusters. Automated alignment is of particular benefit when working with lensed fibres. • Slotted design for easy insertion and removal of fibre • Full 360° rotation on all rotational axes • Piezo drives available for linear axes • Can be configured for variable facet angle • Fibre held in V-groove clamps • Standard V-groove for 125/250 µm fitted. (Custom sizes available.)
