Optoplex Fabry-Perot wavelength locker features built-in thermistor
A new Fabry-Perot wavelength locker includes a thermally stable, etalon-based device, which is made in-house. It is used in wavelength monitoring or ITU-grid channel locking in DWDM systems, laser stabilization for tunable laser, optical power, and network monitoring. A built-in thermistor is used to calibrate out residue thermal effects.

PRESS RELEASE
Athermal 25G-/50G-FSR Fabre-Perot Wavelength Locker
Optoplex’s Athermal Fabre-Perot Wavelength Locker is a thermally stable, etalon-based device that can be widely used in wavelength monitoring or ITU-grid channel locking in DWDM systems, laser stabilization for tunable laser, optical power and network monitoring. The wavelength locker has a wide capture range and excellent wavelength accuracy. A built-in thermistor can be used to calibrate out residue thermal effects when even higher wavelength accuracy is required or for a very narrow-FSR locker. The key optical component of the wavelength locker is an Etalon which is made in-house with Optoplex’s proven technology in thin-film optical coating and optical contact.
