The New Focus division of Bookham will unveil a range of new products with low noise and high speed for enabling precision, high throughput and real-time test and measurement later this month at CLEO (Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics) 2005. Among the new products New Focus is to launch at CLEO are: a new swept-wavelength tunable laser, the TLB-6600, which is believed to be the world's fastest mode-hop-free tuning laser for real-time, or live, test and measurement, spectroscopy, fibre sensing and research applications; a new line of 12 and 25GHz receivers and detectors operating with up to three-times the sensitivity, 70% lower noise and 20% faster rise time than their predecessors for high-speed test and measurement; 20 new and improved models of the New Focus StableWave and Velocity tunable lasers - more than double the previous offering - with new wavelengths, high power versions and state-of-the-art wavelength stability for precision test and measurement, spectroscopy, interferometry and research; an expanded line of New Focus Stability mounts for best-in-class optomechanical stability in semiconductor lithography and inspection, defense and aerospace, test and measurement and research applications; and tiny motorised translation stages for precision positioning in semiconductor capital equipment and research applications.
