New Light Sources from ISTEQ
ISTEQ presents two new plasma light sources: the XWS-30 compact light source and the Hyperchromator tunable light source. The company has a wide range of expertise in developing and manufacturing laser-pump plasma light sources, DPP/LPP EUV light sources, spectrometers, diagnostic equipment, as well as modeling software and codes.
XWS-30 Compact Light Source
The XWS-30 is a super compact broadband light source with low heat dissipation, thus keeping the plasma brightness high.
Special features include:
- Spectral range:
- 190–250 nm for UV configuration
- 250–2500 nm for OFR configuration
- Unique concept of a compact “all-in-one” source
- Very compact dimensions: 110 x 110 x 120 mm
- No external chiller
- Spectral brightness: up to 40 mW/(mm2-sr-nm)
- Output configuration: free space or FCU
- Full system control by laptop/PC via USB-RS485 adapter

Hyperchromator Tunable Light Source
The Hyperchromator monochromator optimally uses the advantages of the pointed plasma light source by using an aperture up to f/1.5 to collect the light and ensure maximum light throughput without a limiting entrance slit. It is optimized for applications that require a fast and tunable point light source.
Special features include:
- Wavelength range: 185–2500 nm (depending on choice of gratings and other requirements)
- Fast optics, up to f/1.5 for highest throughput
- Homogeneous output distribution due to a proprietary design
- Etendue-matched to ISTEQ XWS-30
- Broad tunable range from DUV to NIR
- No input slit
- Built-in shutter
- Different configurations available
- Easy-to-use software with Windows® GUI
- LabVIEW integration upon request
