Home / What does uw represent in an optical power meter

Optical power is measured in linear units of milliwatts (mW), microwatts (uW - really the greek letter "mu"W), nanowatts (nW) and decibels (dB). What is the difference between "dBm" and "dB"? dB is a ratio of two powers, for example the loss in a fiber optic cable. The term usually refers to a device used for measuring the average power in fiber optic systems. An optical power meter measures the photon energy in the form of current or voltage from an optical detector such as a semiconductor, a thermopile, or a pyroelectric detector.
