Conduction-cooled Acousto-Optic Q-Switch
I-QS041-5C10V5-x5-ST3
A custom version of our Stallion Q-Switch,optimised for use at 2100nm.
The patented ‘Stallion’ manufacturing technique provides superior corrosion resistance whilst maintaining optimum performance and RF power handling.
Combining top grade Crystal Quartz with high quality optical finishing and in-house anti-reflection coatings, this Q-Switch exhibits very low insertion loss and high damage threshold.
In addition to the standard product shown, custom configurations are available for specialised applications. These include alternative housing options, wavelengths and RF frequencies.
Our scientists and engineers are available to assist in selecting the most appropriate model of Q-Switch and also RF driver for your application.
