Construction and Study of Mode Properties of Planar Waveguide
Product Code : EDS-ETE-15541
Eduscope India is a leading Construction and Study of Mode Properties of Planar Waveguide
Description:
• In the field of telecommunication optical fiber has played remarkable role in providing long distance, high data rate connectivity and hence is the first choice medium for communication. Optical fiber network use many other waveguide devices and components such as power splitters and combiners, multiplexers, filters and modulators, all are used to process the optical signals.
• Development of such devices requires detail knowledge about the principles and design rules of optical waveguides. The aim of this lab is to offer the experiments which will demonstrate these fundamental principles and rules.
• The lab allows construction of single mode and multi mode planner waveguides using ion exchange technique and also to study the optical characteristics of these waveguides. The iron exchange technique involves use of soda lime glass substrates, KnO bath, temperature controlled ceramic furnace. With this technique the waveguides of different thickness can be realized.
• The optical characteristics of planner waveguide can be studied using optical, opto-mechanical and opto-electronic components. It makes use of optical rail bench fitted with optical mounts to hold He-Ne laser, beam collimator, polarizer and precision graduated rotational mounts having Y and Z translation features. Specially designed waveguide prism coupler holder allows easy mounting of prism waveguide assembly and efficient coupling of light. Laser power meter allows power measurements of mode spectra under different polarization state of incident light.
• Reflection/ Refraction experiments are performed using quartz half cylindrical lens mounted on graduated rotational mounts.
• Allows construction and characteristics study of single and multimode planer waveguides.
• Involves opto-electronics and optical components along with opto-mechanical hardware.
• Allows construction of planer waveguides using ion exchange method.
• Extensive documentation to support development and study of waveguides.
• Light coupling method using prism coupling technique.
• Allows study of fundamental properties of geometric optics.
