Superluminescent LED Study.

Abstract

This is the final report for a contract to develop superluminescent LEDs (SLEDs) for use with graded-index multimode fibers. The basic technical objective is to develop a SLED which can couple at least 500 micro W to power into a standard 0.20 NA 50-um core graded-index fiber at a drive current not exceeding 200 milli A. The program objectives have been met and exceeded. Three devices mounted in a standard package with thermo-electric cooler (TEC) and graded-index fiber pigtail have been shipped to the customer.
