Lightwave Electronics (now JDSU) NPRO 120-02 CW single frequency 1319nm laser It was made by Lightwave Electronics before the Lightwave Electronics was acquired by JDSU and the product line became JDSU’s NPRO (non-planar ring oscillator) product family of lasers. This particular model 120 is no longer in production and it has been superseded by newer 125/126 models of higher power and much higher price too. The listing is a complete laser and it includes laser head, controller, cable to connect laser head to the controller, power cord. The two keys are also included (be careful when you look at other used lasers. You need to make sure the keys are not missing.) The laser is super stable. It has rough tuning (by temperature of the cavity) and fine tuning (by piezoelectric transducer) through the multi-turn control knobs of the controller. The laser was over $20K when new. In perfect working condition as shown in the pictures and well taken care of.  I always seal the laser output port with a piece of Scotch tape when I am not using the laser, to prevent the laser window from dust. No major scratches or sign of wear and tear. The laser cavity is a single piece of crystal (monolithic NPRO cavity) and there is no cavity mirrors that could become misaligned over time.   The output is TEM 00 5 KHz line width single longitudinal mode Has a manual shutter and a manually rotatable half-wave plate to rotate polarization of the laser output. Natural air cooling. The AC power is 120 V AC.   The laser sensing card, the HP optical power meter and the power sensor head in the pictures are not included in this sale. They are used to test the laser to show that the laser is working. Covered by eBay standard 14-day return policy. The description of the laser below is adopted from JDSU’s NPRO laser webpage. The 120-02 diode-pumped laser produce continuous-wave (CW), tunable single-frequency output around 1319 nm. Key features include free-space output, narrow linewidth, low noise, frequency tunability, and adjustable power. The NPRO lasers are used for a variety of applications including fiber-optic sensing, coherent communications, remote antenna links, optical heterodyne, lidar oscillators, and passive sonar. At the heart of each NPRO laser is the unique JDSU, monolithic NPRO laser cavity that delivers true single-frequency laser output. Since its initial development in 1985, NPRO technology has a record of reliability and top-level performance. Amplitude noise for a typical NPRO laser is <0.05 percent rms over the range from 10 Hz to 2 MHz, and less than –165 dB/Hz above 10 MHz (shot-noise limited). This performance is achieved by combining an inherently quiet laser oscillator with a noise reduction circuit, which effectively eliminates the laser’s natural relaxation oscillation. NPRO lasers are built in a compact, OEM-friendly package with all necessary control electronics on the laser head to integrate easily with existing systems or new product platforms. Key Features Proven nonplanar ring oscillator (NPRO) design Superior power stability Narrow linewidth Tunability Ease of use Applications Fiber-optic sensing Coherent communications Remote antenna links Optical heterodyne Lidar oscillator Passive sonar
