The PolaRITE III is a low profile polarization controller for system integration with significantly reduced height and size.

GPCs' miniature polarization scrambler module, the PSM-002, is specially designed for integration into sensor and communication systems that need to work in extreme environmental conditions.

This OEM micro polarization controller integrates GPCs all-fiber dynamic polarization control technology with miniature electronic drive/control circuitry into a compact, self-contained device that provides full polarization control functionality while minimizing volume, power consumption, and cost.

This module integrates a General Photonics all-fiber dynamic polarization controller with miniature piezo driver card, so that the SOP of the signal can be directly controlled either by a 0-5V analog control signal or a 12-bit TTL digital control signal. Because there is an on-board HV DC/DC converter, no external high voltage power supply is required.

GPCs' 4-axis Polarization Scrambler Module uses a breakthrough all-fiber technology to effectively randomize polarization states. Depolarizing by polarization scrambling has many important applications:

GPC's Scrambler module uses a breakthrough all- fiber technology to effectively randomize polarization states. This module is designed to be easily plugged into sensor equipment or measurement instruments with minimal development effort.

The PolaStay polarization tracker automatically adjusts the state of polarization (SOP) towards a reference SOP, counteracting continuous input SOP variations as fast as 0.9 ms with no resets.

GPCs' high-speed polarization state generator (PSG) module provides the ability to generate 6 states of polarization (-45°, 0°, 45°, 90°, RHC & LHC) across the Poincaré Sphere in less than 250 ?s, with an impressive repeatability of less than 0.1 degrees.

GPCs' in-line polarimeter is specially designed for low cost, high-speed polarization characterization without interrupting data traffic. It outputs four voltage signals for calculating both the degree of polarization (DOP) and the state of polarization (SOP) of the light passing through the device in microseconds.

GPCs alle Festkörperpolarisationsschalter können die SOP des einfallenden Lichts schnell und wiederholbar um einen festen Winkel, entweder 45 oder 90 Grad, drehen. Sowohl Single-Mode- als auch PM-Faser-Pigtailed-Versionen sind verfügbar.

Simultaneously detecting the powers of two orthogonal polarization components is important for many sensor and measurement systems, to either obtain polarization related information or minimize polarization sensitivity.
