Tunable Automated ps OPO Suitable For an External IR ps Laser as Pump
Levante IR – ps is a synchronously pumped OPO (optical parametric oscillator) in an innovative new design. The pump source is a mode-locked 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.
New Automated Version
The accessible wavelength range for the Signal output is 1315 … 2000 nm and the wavelength range for the Idler output is 2150 … 4700 nm (when pumped @ 1032 nm). The wavelength tuning itself is now fully automated.
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
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. Simply use our protocol templates for rapid configuration with familiar programming languages, including C++, C#, LabVIEW, Python, Matlab, and Ruby.
