DL-CS6055A

Description

A. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The DenseLight DL-CS6055A series is a broadband SLED that operates in a true inherent superluminescent mode. This superluminescent property generates broader band at higher drive currents in contrast to other conventional SLEDs which are ASE-based, where high drive tends to give narrower band. Its low coherence reduces Rayleigh backscattering noise. Coupled with high power and large spectral width, it offsets photoreceiver noise and improves spatial resolution (in OCT) and measurand sensitivity (in sensors).

The SLED is available in 14-pin BTF package. It is compliance with the requirements of Bellcore Document GR-468-CORE.
Enabled by spread spectra bandgap engineering technology, future generations of DenseLight SLEDs promise higher chip powers (up to 50mW possible), and broader spectral bands (beyond 120nm). Higher levels of integration may feature integrated SLEDs with phase modulators, optical couplers and photodetectors into a complete optical sensor chipset.
