Tunable OPO Levante IR fs

infraredmid-IR

Levante IR – fs is a synchronously pumped OPO (optical parametric oscillator) in an innovative new design. The pump source is a mode-locked femtosecond laser emitting at 1 µm fixed. The generation of the Signal and Idler pulses in a parametric process is jitter-free with respect to each other as well as to the pump pulse. Field Tested Compatibility Levante IR is compatible and field tested with many industrial-grade laser types, for example • Coherent Discovery NX and Axon 1064 • Toptica FF-ultra • LightConversion Flint • Menlo Orange • and more At a Glance • Fully controllable via PC and automated wavelength tuning • Perfectly synchronized output pulses • Standard Software Interface (using TCP/IP) • Integrated spectrometer for OPO Signal wavelength range Automation Included The accessible wavelength range for the Signal output is 1320 … 2000 nm and the wavelength range for the Idler output is 2150 … 4800 nm (when pumped @ 1035 nm). The wavelength tuning itself is fully automated. Power Scaling An OPO is especially suited for power scaling because it uses a parametric process for operation – compared to a laser process with intrinsic heating due to the quantum defect – where there is no intrinsic heat generated by the parametric process in an OPO. Acquisition Software and TCP/IP Standard Software Interface All models come with an easy to use data acquisition software, allowing for real-time data display. Furthermore, the TCP/IP-based standard software interface by APE makes it straight forward to set up remote control. This allows you, for example, to design your own automated measurement routines.
