  • DCF optical module

    DCF optical module

    Dispersion Compensation Module (DCM) is designed to fix the form of optical signals that are deformed by chromatic dispersion. In plain terms, it helps correct pulse broadening that builds up as light travels through fiber, especially in long-distance and dense wavelength-division multiplexing. A DCF is a type of fiber that uses negative chromatic dispersion to compensate for the positive dispersion of the transmitting fiber to maintain the original shape of the signal pulse. We also manufacture precision fiber optic coils for SATCOM, military, telecommunications, sensing, laser mode scrambling, and radar calibration applications.

  • What is a photovoltaic PID module

    What is a photovoltaic PID module

    Potential-induced degradation (PID) is a potential-induced performance degradation in crystalline photovoltaic modules, caused by so-called stray currents. This effect may cause power loss of up to 30 percent. The cause of the harmful leakage currents, besides the structure of the solar cell, is the voltage of the individual photovoltaic (PV) modules to the ground. In most ungrounded P. HistoryThe term "potential-induced degradation" (PID) was first introduced in the English language in a published study by S. Pingel and coworkers in 2010. It was introduced as a degradation mode resulting from voltage pot. Although, PID usually has no visual effect on the module, different are available for detection and analysis.
