Qphotonics Combi Controller Z

Product Description

Qphotonics Combi Controller Z (Laser Diode Driver & Temperature Controller)

This is a precision laboratory instrument designed for driving and stabilizing laser diodes and other photonic components. It combines a constant current source with a thermoelectric cooler (TEC) controller, enabling precise control over both the optical output power and the operating temperature of a device—critical for wavelength stability and device longevity.

Key Features:

• Laser Drive: Constant current output, adjustable, with compliance voltage

• Temperature Control: Integrated TEC driver (heating and cooling) with PID loop and temperature sensing (thermistor or RTD)

• Interfaces: Analog modulation, digital control (likely RS-232/USB), and safety interlock

• Display: Front-panel readouts for current, temperature, and setpoints

• Protections: Current limit, temperature limit, and short-circuit protection

Applications:

• Research and development with laser diodes, LEDs, or superluminescent diodes (SLDs)

• Stabilizing lasers in spectroscopy, interferometry, or quantum optics experiments

• Prototyping and testing of photonic integrated circuits or modules
