Pulsed laser system NanoFlux HP

nanosecondQ-switchedsolid-state

The NanoFlux HP series are high power diode pumped nanosecond amplifier systems designed to deliver high energy pulses at high repetition rates. These electro-optically Q-switched nanosecond Nd:YAG amplifier systems are based on industry-tested technology and are suitable for applications requiring high-intensity, high-brightness pulses with a uniform beam profile and low divergence. The system can be customized for specific requirements, including integration of a customer's own seed source, multi-channel outputs, burst amplification, and more. The master oscillator can produce pulses as short as several nanoseconds, and the power amplifiers use spatial beam shaping to achieve a Super-Gaussian output beam profile. Harmonic generators with temperature-stabilized heaters are available for second and third harmonic generation, ensuring high spectral purity. System control is possible via control pad, USB, LAN, and optionally RS232, with dedicated software for Windows. The NanoFlux HP series offers various customization options, such as industrial-grade portable housing with integrated power supplies and cooling units.
