Research Facilities
The Photonics Research Laboratory is currently located in the A. V. Williams Building (room 4448.) During the Spring 2005 semester, we will be moving to a new laboratory in the Kim Engineering Building, directly across the street.
We are constantly in the process of augmenting our research capabilities, but the following is a partial list of some of the equipment available in our laboratory:
- Four full-size optical tables
- Agilent 81640A tunable laser system
- Fixed wavelength DFB lasers (several)
- Picosecond passively modelocked fiber ring laser (home-built)
- Background-free SHG optical autocorrelator (home-built)
- Agilent 8565E 50 GHz RF Spectrum Analyzer
- Anritsu 68374B 20 GHz Synthesizer
- Centellax 12.5 Gb/s Pattern Generator
- Sumitomo 35se Fusion Splicer
- IPG 100 mW Erbium-doped Fiber Amplifiers (2)
- Ando AQ6317B High-Resolution Optical Spectrum Analyzer
- Hewlett Packard 70951A Optical Spectrum Analyzer
- Agilent 86100A Sampling Oscilloscope, with 50 GHz optical and electrical plugins
- JDSU Programmable Optical Attenuators (4)
- Agilent 86120C Wavelength Meter
- Electrooptic Intensity and Phase Modulators (many)
- Piezoelectric Nanopositioning Flexure Stages
