Phase noise analysers for photonics and quantum
Rohde & Schwarz and Zurich Instruments are showing the latest phase noise analysers and test and measurement systems for photonics and quantum systems.
The R&S FSPN and R&S FSWP are two phase noise analyzers for characterizing laser systems while the Quantum Computing Control System (QCCS) and lock-in amplifiers from Zurich Instruments.
The phase noise analyzers and oscilloscopes from Rohde & Schwarz and lock-in amplifiers from Zurich Instruments complement each other perfectly for comprehensive characterization of optical signals.
Phase noise analyzers are essential for many photonics applications, such as laser and optical source analysis, optical frequency synthesis, optical coherence tomography (OCT) and quantum optics. The R&S FSPN phase noise analyzer is being used in a demo that measures phase noise for ultra-stable microwave systems as the phase noise sensitivity requires a hundred times fewer correlations relative to comparative solutions. The result is a high measurement speed, ideal for efficient phase noise analysis both in R&D and production.
The R&S FSWP combines a signal and spectrum analyzer and phase noise analyzer in a single box for characterizing laser systems. The frequency range of up to 50 GHz and a signal analysis bandwidth of up to 8 GHz is suitable for testing radar applications and when developing and manufacturing synthesizers, OCXOs, DROs and VCOs.
A quantum sensing demo features the new R&S MXO 4, the world’s first oscilloscope with an update rate above 4.5 million waveforms per second and accurate spectrum analysis. This is combined with the Quantum Computing Control System (QCCS) from Zurich Instruments. The QCCS is the first commercial device designed to control more than 100 superconducting and spin qubits.
LabOne Q, the QCCS control software, provides a full measurement framework for quantum computing and facilitates integration into higher-level software.
Zurich Instruments is also demonstrating DC lock-in detection for up to 8.5 GHz with their lock-in amplifiers. Lock-in amplifiers are essential to research laboratories for optics, photonics, scanning probe microscopy and quantum technologies. The instruments can extract very small signals buried in noise, extending the reach of experimental setups.
“The future of photonics is heading toward exciting frontiers, with advancements in quantum photonics, integrated photonics and biophotonics,” said Christian Dille, Global Market Segment Manager for Research and Universities at Rohde & Schwarz. “We at Rohde & Schwarz and Zurich Instruments have invested in cutting-edge solutions for characterizing laser systems and analyzing optical signal sources. We look forward to working with academics and industry professionals to advance innovation at the upcoming LASER World of PHOTONICS trade show.”
Rohde & Schwarz and Zurich Instruments will exhibit at the LASER World of PHOTONICS in Munich next week with the World of QUANTUM alongside.
