G&H wins IOP Innovation Award with Fiber Coupled Acousto-Optic Modulator

Game changing fiber coupled fiber laser acousto-optic modulator recognized by Innovation Award from Institute of Physics.Fiber-Q’s are manufactured for lasers with wavelengths from 400nm – 2000nm and are suitable for a range of applications including LIDAR, materials processing, medical laser systems, microscopy and security sensing 

AOTFs in Asteroid Exploration

Acousto-optic technology is at the heart of MicroOmega, an infrared spectrometer now on its way to the Apollo asteroid (162173) 1999 JU3 with the JAXA / ISA Haybusa2 project. The acousto-optic tuneable filter will enable successful spectral analysis of the asteroid's surface material.

PPLN for Second Harmonic Generation of Fiber Lasers

G&H's Systems Technology Group (STG) are developing fiber coupled periodically poled Lithium Niobate (PPLN) modules for second harmonic generation (SHG) for exploitation of spectral regions currently inaccessible with other laser sources.

Q-Drive G&H's Electro-Optic Pockel Cell Driver

Gooch & Housego's Q-Drive spearheads their development effort to provide a family of Electro-Optical (EO) Pockels cell drivers engineered for performance and durability.

White LED-based Integrating Sphere Offers Superior Luminance Calibration of Imaging Sensors

G&H's prototype white LED-based luminance source offers true broadband output and thus increased flexibility for product testing and detector, imaging system and photometric instrument calibration.

BEACON – Photonics for Telecom Satellites

A promising solution currently being investigated by major satellite vendors worldwide is the introduction of photonics into new generation of flexible payloads. Read how G&H’s Systems Technology Group (STG) is driving innovation in this area.

AOTF's in Space 

G&H receives NASA Certificate of Appreciation for IRIS spectrograph reflective optics

Visible Wavelength fiber coupled acousto-optic modulator for biomedical applications

Miniature FPTF based spectral imaging camera

G&H  explore the potential for a miniature, Fabry Perot etalon based, spectral imaging system and demonstrate it applied directly to the front of a cell phone camera.

The Gooch & Housego EM750 represents a new generation of OEM narrow-linewidth lasers. It is based on the EM650 family of integrated DFB lasers known for their ultra-low noise, stability, and tunability. The new EM750 combines these traits with a mechanism that retains all the advantages of the EM650, but reduces the linewidth to a typical value of <10 kHz.
