The HighFinesse Linewidth Analyzers are high-end optical instruments for measuring, analyzing and controlling frequency and intensity noise of laser light sources. By combining an interferometric working principle with ultra-low noise electronics, a superb sensitivity is achieved. The real-time signal output offers the option for a fast feedback loop that can be used to actively reduce the frequency noise of the laser.

HighFinesse LWA-1k series

The 1k models are ultimate high-end optical instruments engineered to analyze and control the frequency noise and lineshape of ultra-narrow lasers. Additionally these instruments offer the option to investigate the relative intensity noise of the laser light source with very high resolution and sensitivity.

Analyzing Options

  • Frequency deviation time trace and histogram
  • Frequency noise density spectrum
  • Intensity noise spectrum
  • Laser lineshape spectrum

Evaluation Options

Effective linewidth:

  • Noise at all measured frequencies contributing to the linewidth
  • Lorentzian, Gaussian and Voigt fits for lineshape spectra

Intrinsic linewidth:

  • Level of noise floor at higher frequencies
