DPSS Lasers

This laser series is a line of solid-state optically pumped lasers known as diode pumped solid-state lasers (DPSS). In this case, a diode laser is used to pump a solid-state gain material, such as Nd:YAG or Nd:YVO4. Diode pumping is a very efficient method of pumping dielectric materials since the pump wavelength can be tuned to maximize the photon absorption into the gain material. DPSS lasers have many advantages over standard diode lasers, especially when it comes to beam quality (i.e. circularity and M2). Compact and self-contained, this laser emits a pure TEM00 beam with diffraction limited performance and a (typical) M2 of 1.05. Available in blue (475 nm), green (532 nm), yellow (594 nm), and NIR (1064 nm). With variable power options, these modules are ideal for demanding applications such as metrology, photoluminescence, printing, illumination, scanning, inspection, particle counting, and a variety of bio-medical applications. These turnkey lasers maintain outstanding optical performance over a broad temperature range, guaranteeing minimal power fluctuations and virtually eliminating high frequency noise. Its OEM version utilizes the world’s smallest OEM controller with power consumption less than 20 Watts. It has been qualified for use in some of the most demanding high-end instruments, with deployments in the tens of thousands of units. The 475 nm systems replace bulky, expensive gas ion lasers for bio-medical and fluorescence applications, without sacrificing beam quality.

Features:
• Blue (475 nm), Green (532 nm), Yellow (594 nm), and NIR (1064 nm)
• TEM00 Beam Quality           • More than 10,000 Hours Expected Lifetime
 • Low Noise and Excellent Power Stability           • USB Software Interface Available
• Integratable into Larger OEM Systems

RMS Noise Specs

graph
The Comet™ can be operated over a wide temperature range, 10oC to 35oC, with a stable and quiet laser output power at 532 nm. The Comet™ has a proven history of RMS noise stability less than 0.5%. The combination of excellent beam characteristics, such as mode quality and low divergence and brightness, makes the Comet™ laser series suitable for beam focusing as well as long distance beam positioning.

 

 

Digital Modulation / External Trigger Specs

graph



Using the TTL modulation option, the laser can be digitally pulsed in on/off mode up to 20 kHz with a modulation depth greater than 100:1. With a rise/fall time of less than 20 μs, the TTL signal can be used in conjunction with the trigger signal of your detection system to control your measurement cycle and integration time. TTL modulation is ideal for Raman spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and other applications where the source and the detector need to be precisely triggered.

Analog Modulation Specs

graph



With analog modulation (AM), the laser output power is controlled by applying an arbitrary 0 - 5 V input signal from a function generator. Using the AM option, the laser can be modulated up to 1 kHz with a modulation depth greater than 100:1.
