Ibsen Photonics has been granted a US patent for a "Wavelength division multiplexed device".

Ibsen Photonics, a leading supplier of holographic Phase masks, transmission diffraction gratings and optical spectrometer modules based on diffraction gratings, has been granted a US patent (No 6,978,062) for a "Wavelength division multiplexed device" The technology is based on using multiple transmission gratings to provide high dispersion, while at the same time taking advantage of the beam-folding properties of transmission gratings to create compact module designs

"Our optical module products - for example FBG sensor system interrogators and DWDM optical channel monitors are uniquely high performance and compact simultaneously", says Bjarke Rose, Spectrometer Module Product Manager at Ibsen.

He adds: "Our internally produced fused silica transmission gratings are instrumental as they exhibit exceptional angular tolerance".

Torben Jacobsen, President and CEO comments: "This is a prime example of how our strategy of combining world-leading grating technology with innovative optical design capabilities allows us to offer optical spectrometer modules with great performance on points that by traditional thinking required tradeoffs".
