Description
The FF-8610 is a polarization analysis device for measuring spatial collimation light and fiber optic sources. The instrument uses the rotating wave plate method to measure the degree of polarization. The maximum sampling rate is 20hz. The FF-8610 is equipped with software that displays the polarization state in real time on the Bonga Sphere window. The polarization extinction ratio (PER) of narrow-band light can be measured through the measurement technology of heating optical fiber by combining with the polarization state heat cycle heater.
Application
1. Polarization state analysis and monitoring
2. Polarization measurement
3. Extinction ratio measurement (with fiber self-circulating heater)
4. Rotation Angle measurement
