Fibolocator
-
Fibolocator is an innovative device for measuring and characterizing breaks and other backscattering-causing faults in optical fibers. Time-resolved correlation reflectometry is the principle on which the device is based. It analyzes the backscattered light like a pulse OTDR, but unlike such OTDRs, cw laser diodes are used. The requirements for the test signal and the complexity of the system are low, which leads to very low costs for OEM subsystems.

Deep Submersible Particle Size Analyzer
LISST-Deep
-
The LISST-DEEP instrument obtains in-situmeasurements of particle size distribution,optical transmission, and the opticalvolume scattering function (VSF). Using ared 670nm diode laser and a customsilicon detector, small-angle scatteringfrom suspended particles is sensed at 32specific log-spaced angle ranges. Thismeasurement is post-processed to obtainsediment size distribution, volumeconcentration, optical transmission, andVSF. The electronics and opticalconfiguration in the LISST-DEEP are verysimilar to Sequoia’s workhorse, the LISST-100X. However, because of the extremedifficulty associated with keepingalignment under high pressure, the LISSTDEEPhardware design is radically differentfrom the LISST-100X. This allows theLISST-DEEP to be deployed down to 3000m and obtain reliable measurements ofthe in situ particle size distribution andvolume concentration in waters withoptical transmission up to 98.5%.

Cryocoolers
CT
-
The CT Cooler was brought to commercialization in 2001 after 10 years of cryocooler development at Sunpower. The CT stands for CryoTel®, as the first commercial application was for the telecommunications industry. The CT has been used successfully in applications such as High Temperature Superconductivity (HTS) filters, high altitude balloons, refrigeration, germanium detectors, IR detectors, radio telescopes, laser diode cooling, and research among others. We believe the customer will agree that the CryoTel® CT is the smallest 11W @77K cooler available at an attractive price point with a Mean Time to Failure of over 200,000 hours.

Optical Spectrum Analyzer
-
an optical spectrum analyzer for analyzing short wavelengths from 350nm to 1000 nm. Because it adopts a Fourier spectrum system with a Michelson interferometer, the 8341 can measure the coherence. With its narrow wavelength resolution of 0.01nm * , the 8341 is very effective for the evaluation of not only CD/DVD laser diodes, but also for blue-violet laser diodes. In addition, the built-in He-Ne laser acts as a wavelength reference to ensure a high wavelength measurement accuracy of ±0.01nm * . Finally, with its fast 0.5s * measurement speed, the 8341 is ideal for building into systems for mass production and evaluating temperature characteristics of system components.
