March 7, 2008, Blacksburg, VA--Luna Technologies announced its Phoenix 1000 tunable laser at OFC/NFOEC 2008. Luna's microelectromechanical systems (MEMS)-based, external cavity laser is based on the former Iolon 'Apollo' class of tunable lasers and offers low noise and precise tuning capability over the C-band. Luna Technologies is a division of Luna Innovations (Roanoke, VA).

"We acquired the intellectual property rights and manufacturing equipment in December 2006, to allow us to compete more effectively in Luna's existing fiber optic test and measurement markets by providing our customers with fast, flexible and cost-effective test and measurement products. We are also aggressively pursuing new markets such as industrial and medical sensing with our new laser," commented Kent Murphy, Luna Innovations' Chairman and CEO.

Product highlights of this miniaturized, 18-pin TEC-cooled package include fast tuning up to 500 Hz, mode-hop free swept operation over the C-band wavelength coverage from 1515 nm to 1565 nm, narrow linewidth less than 2 MHz and superior phase noise characteristics. The Phoenix 1000 tunable laser product is available immediately, with four to six weeks typical for delivery
