Tunable OPO Levante Emerald

infrared

Levante Emerald is a widely tunable fully automated high power NIR OPO of ps pulses. It is based on a synchronously pumped optical parametric oscillator (OPO), with an external green ps laser as pump. The OPO is adaptable to work with pump pulse widths between 2 … > 20 ps and pump powers from 2 … 20 W for an output power of up to 5 W. The pulses of the output beams are close to transform limit and of high beam quality. The Levante Emerald exhibits a robust mechanical design on a solid steel baseplate enabling stable long term operation as well as excellent beam pointing stability. New Automated Version The Levante Emerald has been newly developed featuring full automation, i.e. software controlled tuning. This is made possible by its entirely new control electronics, internal diagnostics, and Control Software packaged conveniently in a new housing. Hence handling has never been easier. The Control Software on the PC is equipped with a Software Interface (using TCP/IP). The OPO can easily be integrated into larger experimental setups and software controlled environments. The new Levante Emerald is based on APEs long standing experience in developing and manufacturing fully automated OPOs.
