A broad selection of measurement systems are available for the characterization of photonic and optoelectronic components. Systems are available for both chip level (laboratory) and wafer level characterization (laboratory & cleanroom).

We use vibration isolated tables and nanopositioners to reliably couple light to and from devices. The available optical sources and detectors operate over a wide wavelength range. High speed sweeps with tunable lasers or optical spectrum analyzers enable measurement of spectral characteristics.

Electrical sourcing and measurement can be done from low levels (ex. photodiode dark current) to high levels (ex. driving heaters). High speed equipment allows for measurements up to 40 GHz.
