WHISPER MODE
Dither suppression (Optional)
The Laser 1000 Series series comes with an optional whisper mode. This feature enables the user to temporarily disable the laser control frequency dither, which is useful for applications that require the narrowest linewidth. All Quantifi Photonics tunable lasers adhere to the OIF standard Micro Integrable Tunable Laser Assemblies (μITLA) Implementation Agreement and utilise the standard dithering method for frequency stability

SPECS AS OF NOVEMBER 2020 Notes
1. Specifications are valid at 23 °C ± 3 °C.
2. Varies slightly according to wavelength.
3. The laser uses a small FM dithering as part of its wavelength-locking mechanism. The instantaneous linewidth is measured in 1 ms (integration time). Option -1099 allows the user to control when dithering is enable or disabled. Without option -1099, dithering is always on and applies a slowly moving back-and-forth adjustment of the center wavelength (+/- 48 MHz at 888 Hz) all while maintaining an instantaneous linewidth of <100KHz.
4. At maximum output power.
5. Wavelength is an approximation. Laser is controlled in frequency.
6. When changes to the tuning wavelength are required the unit disables the output power as per industry standards. These sources are designed to be used in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) applications. In order to not interfere with adjacent channels which may be near the unit’s wavelength while doing precision tuning, the power is maintained off until the new tuning target is reached. The precision tuning and power disabling actions require a finite amount of time to execute, and this time may vary depending on the amount of change required when moving between set values dictated by the user.
7. Model includes whisper mode control.
