OEwaves’ patented approach to injection-locking semiconductor lasers to crystalline, whispering gallery-mode resonators specifically addresses the needs of quantum applications.
OEwaves makes scalable Hi-Q lasers with exceptionally low phase and amplitude noise at specific wavelengths, with high free-running stability, high frequency tunability, and high actuation bandwidth allowing for efficient phase and frequency locks without electro-optical modulators.
Scalability is paramount for future quantum technology systems where multiples of units will be required, according to Chris Lay, Product Specialist with Raymax which distributes OEwaves in Australasia.
“So OEwaves lasers are particularly suitable because, unlike other large, expensive lasers, OEwaves lasers’ smaller size, their lower weight, power consumption and cost (SWaP-C) are compatible with up-scaling for future systems,” says Chris.
As well as Hi-Q lasers, OEwaves manufactures laser noise analysers to measure the stringent parameters to be met in quantum technologies such as quantum communications, quantum computing, and quantum sensors, which take advantage of quantum phenomena such as superposition, quantum coherence, and entanglement, for increased performance.
“Quantum sensors, such as atomic clocks, quantum magnetometers, radar and lidar provide much higher performance for metrology than their classical counterparts,” says Chris.
OEwaves manufactures lasers in the UV and visible regions of the spectrum, where most atomic and ion transitions occur. With sub-Hertz linewidth, OEwaves’ lasers can increase the overlap with those narrow transitions, thus reducing the power needed to excite them.
