Funding is available to purchase a laser-based photonic component testing system which is capable of rapidly modifying the wavelength (>100 nm/s sweep rate) with a high level of precision (sub-picometer wavelength resolution). Such a system must also be able to accurately measure the wavelength-dependent power to allow for characterisation of a device under test (DUT). Such a system would strongly complement the photonics capabilities available to the QTIC/BIZ community.
