Description

Faraday Rotator Mirror

A unique property of Faraday rotator mirrors is that at any point along the fiber, the SOPs of the forward going and reflected light are always orthogonal to each other, regardless of the birefringence of the fiber. Therefore, when properly used, the device can help to eliminate polarization sensitivity in optical fiber systems.

Features:

  • Compact size
  • Low insertion loss
  • High stability
  • Rugged design
  • NoTail™ model available

Applications:

  • Polarization sensitivity elimination in:
  • Fiber interferometers & sensors
  • Fiber laser systems
  • Brillouin amplifiers
  • Fiber optic antenna remoting systems
  • Fiber optic modules
