Polarization-Maintaining Attenuator(PM MEMS VOA)

The PM MEMS VOA is a dynamic optical power control device designed for polarisation-sensitive optical circuits, combining: polarisation-maintaining (PM) optical fibre, MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) technology, and variable optical attenuation (VOA) functionality.

MEMS VOA temperature attenuation curve: the horizontal coordinate is voltage (V),

and the vertical index is VOA attenuation value (dB).

In the figure, different colors represent VOA attenuation curves at -40°, -20°, 0°, 25°, 70° and 85° respectively.
