Laser frequency control interferometer
TOPTICA Photonics AG
The iScan comprises a patented interferometer for fast and precise frequency control of tunable lasers. The laser frequency can be scanned in a precisely linear or step-wise manner. The laser can also be stabilized to any value within its tuning range, including "off-resonant" values where no atomic or molecular transition is available. Applications include laser cooling, interferometry, LIDAR seeding, and cw terahertz experiments.
