To ensure that the Burleigh WA-7100 Wavelength Meter operates at its peak performance and meets the critical specifications outlined, we at Wyoming Electronics Inc. follow a detailed and methodical approach to fixing and calibrating the device. Here’s how we address each specific issue related to the given specifications:

1. Wavelength Range and Uncertainty

Range: 1270 nm to 1680 nm (178 THz to 236 THz) Uncertainty: (3?) (pm) ± 0.3

To ensure the wavelength range and uncertainty are maintained within specifications, our technicians start with a thorough check of the monochromator and the associated optical components that contribute to wavelength discrimination. Calibration involves using traceable wavelength standards to adjust the device’s settings until the measured uncertainty aligns with the specified ±0.3 pm. This process may include adjustments to the grating alignment and verification of the detector’s linearity across the stated range.

2. Minimum Resolvable Separation

Separation: 30 pm

Achieving a minimum resolvable separation of 30 pm requires precise alignment and calibration of the optical system, particularly focusing on the resolution capabilities of the monochromator. We utilize finely calibrated light sources with known peak separations to ensure the device can effectively resolve details to this level, adjusting optical alignments and detection thresholds as necessary.

3. Optical Power Uncertainty

Uncertainty: ± 0.5 dB (2?) within ± 30 nm from 1310 nm and 1550 nm

Calibrating optical power uncertainty, especially near critical wavelengths like 1310 nm and 1550 nm, involves using stable, calibrated light sources and power meters to benchmark and adjust the device’s readings. Any deviations observed are corrected through electronic and optical adjustments within the device to ensure adherence to the ±0.5 dB uncertainty standard.

4. Linearity (dB)

Linearity: ± 0.3

Linearity in dB is crucial for ensuring that the device accurately represents signal strength across its dynamic range. We calibrate this by measuring the response to a logarithmically varying signal and adjusting system parameters to minimize any non-linear responses. This process ensures that the device maintains a linearity of ±0.3 dB across its operational range.

5. Optical Input

Input: 9/125 µm fiber

To maintain optimal performance with a 9/125 µm fiber input, we regularly clean and inspect all fiber connectors and interfaces for any signs of wear or contamination. The alignment of the fiber input with the internal optics is also checked to prevent any coupling losses or misalignments that could affect performance.

6. Voltage and Frequency

Range: 90 to 260 VAC, 50/60 Hz

The device’s power supply is tested under various voltages within the specified range to ensure stable operation regardless of local power supply variations. This includes checking the power supply unit for voltage regulation, filtering capabilities, and overall stability to handle the specified frequency variations.

7. Instrument Interface

Interface: GPIB (IEEE-488.2), RS-232, floppy disk drive

Ensuring that all interfaces are functional includes testing each communication port for correct operation. The GPIB and RS-232 ports are tested with standard communication protocols to verify data transmission and reception. The floppy disk drive is tested for both read and write capabilities, ensuring data can be stored and retrieved without errors.
