The L-band broadband source is based on Amplified Spontaneous Emission froma diode-pumped Er-doped fiber, and delivers a high spectral density output in the 1562 nm - 1608 nm range. The source uses a MultiwavePhotonics proprietary design allowing very high spectral density by effective suppression of spurious lasing. The broadband source is typically used for testing optical components and optical communication systems operating in the L-band by noise loading and recording BER as function of OSNR, as well as in fiber-optic gyroscopes, to mention just a few applications. The high spectral density contained within a large bandwidth makes this source also suited for sensing applications.
