Diode Lasers offer output at 408, 442, and 638 nm.
Press Release Summary:
Available with inputs for digital and analog modulation with bandwidth in excess of 300 MHz (less than 1 nsec rise/fall time), 56 RCS-series diode lasers are suited for applications in reprographics, fluorescence, and metrology. Series incorporates optics positioning techniques that provide repeatable optical performance and controlled beam divergence. User interface, which includes hour meter and diagnostic LEDs, enables control of laser and thermoelectric cooler current.
Original Press Release:
Melles Griot Announces a New Family of Free-Space Diode Lasers with Output at 408, 442, and 638 nm
January 2006
Based on the proven Melles Griot 56 ICS technology, the 56 RCS-series platform is designed to satisfy the requirements of both OEM and end-user applications. The new platform incorporates advanced optics positioning techniques that provide repeatable and consistent optical performance with far field circularity of >95%, precisely controlled beam divergence, and accurate waist location. A new user interface, which includes an hour meter and diagnostic LEDs, enables operator control of both laser and thermoelectric cooler current.
All units are available with inputs for both digital and analog modulation with a bandwidth in excess of 300 MHz (<1nsec rise/fall time). This convenient feature can be used to adjust output power when limited or controlled sample illumination or excitation is critical. Built-in modulation simplifies OEM system design and reduces overall cost and size by eliminating the need for external modulators, shutters, or attenuators. These lasers are ideal for applications including reprographics, fluorescence, and metrology.
Melles Griot is a leading global supplier of photonics products including optical components and systems, lasers, motion-control systems, laser measurement instrumentation, opto-mechanical hardware, and vibration isolated optical tables and workstations. The company has manufacturing and distribution activities in 41 countries, serving industries as diverse as semiconductor, biotechnology, metrology, and research. Melles Griot is a Barloworld Scientific company.
