LQ215
DESCRIPTION

 

Original and reliable optical scheme ensures compensation of both astigmatism and thermooptical distortions and places at your disposal laser radiation of the highest quality.

One more peculiarity of the laser optical scheme is that all the components operate at loads considerably lower than the admissible values. Such a smooth operation mode not only increases life time of the components but also ensures unique operational reliability of the whole laser. As a result, you can use the LQ215 laser for your experiments day-to-day and year-to-year having forgotten about repairs and other unpleasant operation costs.

All the laser optical components are installed on a rigid base fixed to the housing with specially developed dampers. Due to this, mechanical vibrations and housing stress no way influence the quality of the cavity alignment.

All the critical components of the laser are thermally stabilised which in combination with vibration-proof design ensures unsurpassed long-term output radiation stability. The efficient thermostats used in the LQ215 ensure warm-up time of less than 10min.

To reduce your time expenses on routine service of the LQ215 we provided flash lamp life time of more than 50 million pulses and foreseen easy and quick procedure of its replacement.

It should be noted that the laser design allows to replace the flash lamp without removing the laser head upper cover. Such a technical solution considerably reduces risks of the optical components contamination as well as increases operational reliability of the device.

Closed-loop water-to-air cooling system is integrated into a compact single-phase laser power supply which can be controlled both from PC and via the remote control unit.

OPTIONS & ACCESSORIES

HARMONIC GENERATORS

In the standard configuration the LQ215 laser has built-in SHG, THG and FHG. However, upon your request the harmonic generators can be supplied as external stand-alone modules. FiHG is available only as an external unit.

OPO

Upon your request the LQ215 laser can be supplemented with an optical parametric oscillator of the LP600 series. In such a combination you will have a source of continuously tuneable laser radiation within a wide spectral range (from UV to IR).

THE LZ221 RAMAN SHIFTER

Compact and easy to adjust and operate Raman shifter efficiently converts 1064 nm or 532 nm output radiation into several additional laser lines within the visible and IR range.

 

IR CONVERTERS

The IR converters are very compact devices with built-in OPO operating in the NCPM mode. The range of IR converters are laser sources providing fixed output wavelengths from 1.5 µm to 3.5 µm.

 

POWER ATTENUATOR

The laser can be supplemented with a variable power attenuator. Upon your choice it can be either a unit optimised for operation at one wavelength or an achromatic attenuator intended for simultaneous attenuation of all the laser harmonics from 266 nm to 1064 nm.

ARTICULATED ARM

A number of applications require quick and flexible laser beam delivery to the research object or the place of measurements. For this an optical fiber can be used but only for delivery of low pulse energy radiation (5-20 mJ). To deliver high-power radiation we offer to supplement the laser with a mirror articulated arm. To minimise losses of laser pulse energy we use special dielectric mirrors with high reflection coefficient simultaneously for 1064 nm and 532 nm.
