Frequently Asked Questions

The HIPFOSS features polarization extinction ratios up to 40 dB, temperature-controlled stable sources with isolators, excellent stability and long lifetime, a wide range of available wavelengths, connector receptacles, and optional high-power versions. It is also available with laser diodes or super luminescent diodes.

Accessories for the HIPFOSS include master reference patchcords for confirming the performance of the source, and power cords for regions outside of North America. Extinction Ratio Meters are also available for measuring the output polarization from a fiber.

The HIPFOSS is suitable for applications such as extinction ratio measurements, polarization-dependent loss (PDL) measurements, and interferometry. It is also suitable for product manufacture and quality control.

The HIPFOSS is a precision instrument that produces light with exceptional power and wavelength stability. It is designed to provide highly polarized light with extinction ratios of up to 40 dB.

Yes, the HIPFOSS can be built with an optional output power adjustment. It can also be built with a blocking style attenuator to manually control the output intensity.
