Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 1030nm TGG Based Optical Isolator and what are its main applications?

A 1030nm TGG Based Optical Isolator is a fiber optic device designed to allow light to pass in one direction while blocking it in the reverse direction, preventing back reflection and back scattering. Its main applications include fiber optic amplifiers, fiber optic lasers, test and measurement equipment, and other fiber optic communication systems.

What are the key features of the DK Photonics 1030nm TGG Based Optical Isolator?

The DK Photonics 1030nm TGG Based Optical Isolator offers high isolation, low insertion loss, excellent environmental stability and reliability, and is cost-effective. It is available in both polarization insensitive and polarization maintaining versions, with customizable power handling and wavelength options.

How do I choose the correct part number and customize the optical isolator for my application?

To choose the correct part number, use the ordering code format provided in the datasheet and specify your requirements such as wavelength, power handling, fiber type, pigtail length, and connector type. For custom specifications, provide detailed descriptions of your needs, including special fiber pigtails, different wavelengths, or higher power handling.

What is the recommended connector and fiber configuration for high power applications?

For high power applications, DK Photonics recommends direct splicing without connectors to minimize insertion loss and maximize reliability. If connectors are required, avoid using 250μm bare fiber pigtails and note that each connector increases insertion loss by 0.3 dB and reduces return loss by 5 dB.

What power handling and wavelength ranges are available for DK Photonics optical isolators?

DK Photonics optical isolators can handle optical powers ranging from 300mW up to 150W (or more upon request) and support center operating wavelengths from 500nm to 2100nm, making them suitable for a wide variety of laser and fiber optic communication applications.

How does the TGG crystal contribute to the performance of the optical isolator?

The TGG (Terbium Gallium Garnet) crystal is used in the isolator for its high Verdet constant, which enables efficient Faraday rotation. This results in high isolation and low insertion loss, making the device highly effective at suppressing back reflections in demanding optical systems.

Can I request a custom optical isolator if the standard options do not meet my requirements?

Yes, DK Photonics welcomes custom orders. If the standard isolator does not meet your needs, you can request custom specifications such as different fiber types, connector options, power handling, or operating wavelengths. Contact DK Photonics with your detailed requirements for a tailored solution.
