Optical Spectrum Analyzers
Quick Overview
An Optical Spectrum Analyzer (or OSA) is a precision instrument designed to measure and display the distribution of power of an optical source over a specified wavelength span. An optical analyzer spectrum trace displays power in the vertical scale and the wavelength in the horizontal scale.
The expanding field of optics-related applications has created a variety of industries and organizations that require advanced optical spectral measurements for both R&D and manufacturing. These industries include telecommunications, consumer electronics, healthcare, life science/medical research, security, sensing, microscopy, and gas/chemical analysis, and environmental monitoring.
Yokogawa (formerly Ando) is the global leader in optical spectrum analyzers, delivering high quality, cutting-edge technology with dependability, performance, and flexibility for over thirty years.
