Description
The GKER Photonics 1064 nm Faraday Mirror (GK-FM Series) is a highly reliable passive optical device engineered to rotate the polarization of the input light by 90 degrees. This rotation helps minimize polarization-related effects, making it an essential component in high-performance optical systems. With a center wavelength of 1064 nm, the Faraday Mirror is designed for use in applications such as Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFAs), fiber lasers, and other fiber optic instruments where maintaining signal integrity is critical.
The device boasts excellent environmental stability, ensuring consistent performance across a range of operating conditions. It features a low typical insertion loss of 2.8 dB, which helps to maintain the overall efficiency of the optical system. The Faraday Mirror is also designed to handle a maximum continuous wave optical power of 150 mW, making it suitable for demanding applications.
Its compact design and use of HI 1060 fiber make it easy to integrate into various optical setups. The device also offers a low polarization-dependent loss and minimal polarization mode dispersion, ensuring high signal quality and reliability. The 1064 nm Faraday Mirror is an ideal choice for professionals seeking to enhance the performance and stability of their optical systems, particularly in environments where polarization effects can significantly impact signal quality.
