Product
Ultrafast Photodetector with Current Monitor, 750 - 1650 nm, DC - 30 GHz, FC/PC
DXM30AF
-
The DXM30AF Ultrafast Detector is a DC - 30 GHz, fiber-coupled, InGaAs-based photodetector designed for applications in the 750 nm - 1650 nm wavelength range. The core element of the detector is the fiber-coupled, hermetically sealed, microwave detector module. For convenience and simplicity of use, the module is mounted inside a rugged housing that includes a rechargeable battery, current monitor circuitry, and a digital display of the DC photocurrent.

Optics
-
Welcome to Thorlabs; below you will find links to optical components and systems, a subset of our entire line of photonics products. All single element optical components can be found under the optical elements link with the exception of optical components that have polarization properties since they have a separate link. Multi-element systems like beam expanders and objective lenses as well as interferometers, fiber collimators, reference cells, modulators, and other optical devices can be found by choosing the optical systems link. Thorlabs also manufactures an extensive line of free-space and fiber optic isolators; stock items ship the same day that they are ordered while our custom orders benefit from our streamlined design and manufacturing process, which minimizes lead time.

sCMOS Camera
Quantalux
-
Thorlabs' Quantalux™ Scientific CMOS (sCMOS) Camera offers extremely low read noise and high sensitivity for demanding imaging applications. The compact housing has been engineered to provide passive thermal management for the sensor, reducing dark current without the need for a cooling fan or thermoelectric cooler. These features makes the Quantalux camera ideally suited for low-light imaging applications such as fluorescence microscopy.

Fiber Optomechanics
-
The versatile FiberBench product line includes Single and Multi-Axis FiberBenches as well as a wide variety of compatible components ranging from beamsplitter modules to wave plate units. FiberBenches form the foundation of a nearly infinite array of miniature fiber optic systems that customers have been building for the last decade. When used with the FiberPort Collimators/Couplers, a complete optical circuit can be constructed. The Fiber Launch Platforms are ideal for coupling a free space laser into a single mode, multimode, or polarization-maintaining fiber. Other accessories include fiber mounts, fixed and kinematic collimator adapters, and L-bracket mating sleeves.
