TeraFlex - Génération THz par photomixage de Laser Stabilisé
Teraflex is a complete solution for generation, test and measurement of terahertz and optics frequencies. It is an RF source based on optical photo mixing approach capable of generating any frequency between 0 to 2THz (5 THz coming soon). The Teraflex can also generate an ultra-narrow linewidth optical signal.

The patented optical feedback technology has solved two of the main problems associated with current optical source solutions, namely the frequency stability and the phase noise. This source can be coupled to a RF module for wireless communications, integrated into radars or THz active cameras via other modules. The Teraflex can also incorporate an I/Q modulator, so if it is combined with an I/Q baseband generator, the instrument can be used to generate signals for all radio standards in both optics and RF frequency bands.
The base version is using 188THz lasers but it can be customized to other frequencies. Contact us for me details
Key Specifications :
- Very low phase noise < -100 dBc/Hz at 1 kHz
- Accordable between 0 and 2 THz
- Ultra-stable < 0,1 Hz/s
- Linewidth < 1 Hz
Applications
- High speed wireless communications (5G+, 6G …)
- High speed optical communication (fiber and free space)
- Radar
- Military and space communication
- Imaging
- Spectroscopy
- Laser Stabilisation
- Metrology
Highlights
• Fine tuning of the output frequency from 0 to 2 THz.
• Constant phase noise over the entire frequency range
• Only one device to meet all radio frequency bands.
• High-speed optical data encoding with standard modulation (QPSK, QAM, OFDM…)
• Well suitable to terahertz radar due to the source high stability and tunability. Terahertz
radar is more effective than LiDAR in degraded visual environments (dust, sand, snow…).
• Excellent size, weight, power and cost factor (SWaP-C).
• Multiple output formats (fiber/RF connector) are available.
