These instruments are used to measure wavelength emissions from Lasers, Laser Diodes and LED’s into the near infrared. A fiber optic cable is used to couple the output from the test device into the spectrometer. The instrument allows characterization of the wavelength stability with time, temperature, and device drive current. Depending on your application and wavelength requirements, StellarNet can offer high resolution spectrometers up to 0.1nm resolution. Contact StellarNet for availability of other wavelength range and resolutions.
Optical Fibers
For 1310 and 1550nm laser diodes, a fiber is used to couple the ST device connector with a spectrometer input connector (SMA). Other couplings use a 600um fiber with a lens attached to a SMA bulkhead fitting that can be easily mounted in the device emission path.
The factory performs calibrations for the appropriate wavelength range of your spectrometer using NIST traceable calibration lamps (calibration service IRRAD-CAL must be ordered with spectrometer and proper measurement accessories)
Fast delivery: most system can be calibrated and shipped within 1 week after receipt of order.
Absolute calibration: accuracy within 10% at detector integration setting used for calibration.
Certificate available: documentation with NIST traceable serial numbers.
If the user has an appropriate irradiance calibration source lamp, a field re-calibration can be easily performed using the included SpectraWiz software.

Spectrum Analyzer Sample Spectra
SpectraWiz software enables wavelength measurements of emission peaks, peak area centroid, FWHM (Full Width Half Max), and dBm.
NIR2-HR HgA Emission Spectra using High Resolution NIR2-HR model spectrometer. StellarNet spectrometers can be built to customer specification in most cases. There is no extra charge for a ‘custom’ range spectrometer; however, it does become a non-returnable item.
