SLED (Superluminescent Diode) broadband light source is a special semiconductor light source with performance between laser diode and light emitting diode. A semiconductor light emitting device with wide spectrum, weak temporal coherence, high power, and high efficiency. Its spectral bandwidth is relatively narrow compared to ultra wideband light sources, typically in the spectral range of 6nm to 100nm.

Ultra wideband light sources use multiple SLED lasers and broadband coupling technology, which can achieve continuous spectral output exceeding 400nm and have high power spectral density, good stability, and reliability.

Application scenarios

1. Fiber optic sensing testing system

Fiber optic sensing technology has applications in many fields, including industrial monitoring, structural health monitoring, environmental monitoring, etc. The high power, stability, and wide spectral bandwidth of SLED broadband light sources make them an ideal light source choice in fiber optic sensing technology, providing high-precision optical signals for various physical quantities such as temperature, pressure, deformation, etc. in fiber optic sensing technology.

2. Biomedical imaging

Thanks to its high power, wide spectrum, low ripple, and high stability, SLED broadband light sources are essential in applications such as optical imaging, optical coherence tomography (OCT), spectral measurement, and fluorescence analysis. Its broadband characteristics can provide high-resolution and high signal-to-noise ratio images and measurement results.

3. CWDM Device Performance Testing System

The spectral range of the ultra wideband light source can cover the wavelengths required for the entire CWDM system (800~1100nm, 1250~1650nm, or 1220~1700nm). Combined with a high-resolution spectral analyzer, it can more accurately test parameters such as operating bandwidth, center wavelength, insertion loss, and crosstalk between different wavelength channels, making it an ideal light source for CWDM device performance testing.
