❂Lasers
ORPHEUS-MIR is a versatile system optimized for the efficient generation of broadband, MIR pulses from Light Conversion. Features include:
| |
13.5nm EUV source now available from IL Photonics. | |
Femtosecond laser micro-machining workstations produce glass spacers, micro drilled glass, and packaging glass products. The foundations of these systems are femtosecond lasers from Light Conversion. | |
In a published paper, the authors explain how they developed a cost-efficient, open source laser engine for fluorescence microscopy. Their experimental setup included a powerful diode-pumped solid-state laser (DPSS) gem 561 laser (561 nm, 500 mW) from Laser Quantum. | |
MegaWatt Lasers (MWL) has developed a high energy 2.94 µm resonator with a relatively quasi-continuous wave (QCW) short pulse duration. The specs for this device are 3 J at 10 Hz with an optical pulse duration of 100 µs. These resonators have found world-wide use for medical and scientific applications. | |
Expanding the limits of super resolution microscopy into electron microscopy territory! The gem 532 laser from Laser Quantum is a critical laser source that is enabling this cutting edge technique. For more information, read the full paper. | |
The Technion’s Ultrafast Quantum Dynamics Group has recently received their first laser system, a phase-stable Ti:sa oscillator (venteon CEP5). Due to the travel restrictions, the group performed the installation themselves with remote guidance from the supplier Laser Quantum. |
❂Optics
New! Broadband Mid-IR Optical IsolatorsEOT now offers Broadband MAKROS and Broadband MESOS optical isolators that cover the spectral range from 1600 to 4600 nm. | |
Holo/Or presents a brand new family of cost-effective, accurate beam shaping solutions for low to medium power source systems – the Polymer On Glass (POG) family. | |
Chroma introduces a new line of magnetron-sputtered metal UV induced transmission bandpass filters that exceed industry standards in both transmission efficiency and durability, while continuing to offer reasonable pricing and a wide variety of custom dimensions. | |
Holo/Or produces laser beam homogenizers, also called optical homogenizers or diffusers. These optical components generate a uniform distribution from the input beam projected onto it. Therefore the output beam has a well-defined near constant intensity profile at the far field or focal plane over a certain area, with very low intensity outside that area. | |
Manx Precision Optics (MPO) offers a wide range of high-power laser optics that are customizable for customer demands and applications, such as flat optics. MPO’s high-power laser optics are available in a range of sizes from 5 mm up to 500 mm diameter with a surface flatness in excess of lambda/10 after coating. With special expertise in high Laser-Induced Damage Threshold (LIDT) optics, their products typically exceed laser-induced damage levels of 10 J/cm2 in 1 ns at 10 Hz repetition rate. | |
Electro-Optics Technology (EOT) has released the new PAVOS+ Ultra line of Faraday devices. These components have been specifically designed to meet the needs of the high power and high energy 1 µm (1010 nm to 1080 nm) laser market with stable performance up through 150 W of average power. | |
Chroma Technology presents a video that discusses how various forms of high-energy sputtering are used for complex types of hard-coated spectral filters, requiring very high levels of precision. These include multi-band filters, extremely narrow-band filters, and photometric filters precisely matched to CIE color spaces. Contact IL Photonics for more information. |
