Continuous wave laser source Axsun SS-OCT

fibertunablenear-infrared

Overview
Excelitas' line of Axsun Swept-Source OCT lasers deliver a balance of tuning bandwidth, output power, sweep speed and coherence length to support next-generation Optical Coherence Tomography systems. Based on micro-optical integration and a patented MEMS tunable filter, the scalable Axsun platform is used by OCT system vendors across medical and non-medical markets.

Spectral Ranges

• Available spectral ranges: 1060 nm, 1220 nm, or 1310 nm.

Imaging Performance

• Tuning bandwidths up to 140 nm to support high axial resolution.
• Sweep speeds up to 400 kHz to enable high-speed imaging.
• Coherence lengths measured in meters, enabling long-range imaging and deep ranging.

Configurations & Customization

• Multiple configurations: ultra-compact small form-factor engine (laser only), benchtop enclosure for laboratory use, or OEM engines.
• Optional integrated features: balanced photoreceivers, k-clocks, data acquisition electronics, aiming lasers and interferometers to support system integration.

Reliability & Support

• Axsun products have logged billions of operating hours in imaging systems and telecom since 2001.
• Products meet Telcordia qualification standards and are supported by an engineering team with decades of experience in laser and OCT system technology.
