Based on patented technology using femtosecond lasers to write waveguides directly inside optical fibers, OZ Optics' optical tap monitors combine the optical tap design with a photodiode in a single package. Optical taps work at a variety of wavelengths, including visible, near IR, and 2 micron wavelengths, and are suitable for high power applications. Taps can be constructed in many fiber types, including specialty fibers such as polarization maintaining fibers and photonic crystal fibers. The device is Telcordia GR468 tested, making it well suited for the telecommunications industry. The manufacturing process permits full automation, thus sharply reducing manufacturing costs.
