For Immediate Release

Wave Division Multiplexors

DRAFT RELEASE - Version 1.0

Ottawa, Canada - September 3, 2004


OZ Optics Limited’s line of Wave Division Multiplexing (WDM) systems includes systems for visible wavelengths, combining Red (633–690nm), Green (514–543nm), and Blue (400–488nm) light sources into one singlemode or polarization maintaining fiber. These WDM systems are ideal for applications requiring white light illumination from a fiber. Applications include colour laser confocal microscopy, spectroscopy, full colour laser displays, and colour holography.

By using achromatic optics with specially designed dichroic filters, our WDM systems combine light of widely different wavelengths with low losses. Our singlemode and polarization maintaining fibers for these applications are specially selected to ensure correct behaviour throughout the entire visible wavelength range. In addition OZ Optics provides laser to fiber couplers for many makes and models of lasers and can custom design couplers specifically for your laser. The WDM units can transmit several hundred milliwatts of visible light, while maintaining polarization by up to better than 20dB. We also have fiber collimators and focusers that feature achromat lenses, to convert the combined output from the fiber to either a collimated beam or focused spot to your specifications. Parts can be purchased individually, or OZ Optics can design and build an entire system, complete with laser sources and output optics, to your specifications. Contact an OZ optics sales representative for more details, or obtain a more detailed datasheet on our website, www.ozoptics.com.
