The Elusive Trifecta for the Perfect iTLA
Pilot Photonics has written an article for the December 2023 (Volume 29, Issue XII) edition of Compound Semiconductor. In it, we explain our integrated tunable laser assembly (iTLA) possessing wide tunability, fast switching and narrow linewidth: The Elusive Trifeca.
ECOC 2023 in Glasgow Opens Interest in Tunable Lasers
The European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC) was held over 4 days at the SEC in Glasgow, Scotland in October 2023. Pilot Photonics was there to showcase our latest developments in optical comb and tunable laser technology. It was the 49th edition of the conference, which brings together over 6,700 visitors and 300 exhibitors to discuss their latest breakthroughs and offerings.
Visitors to our booth were particularly interested in our widely-tunable lasers in the O-band and C-band. These lasers span 35 nm and offer “step & sweep” tuning today, with a quasi-continuous tuning version coming soon. The lasers are suitable for applications in coherent optical communications in both telecoms and datacoms, fibre sensing, FMCW LiDAR and more.
