Compact LX Spider
The Compact Choice for the Ti:Sa Wavelength Range
Compact LX Spider is the Ideal for the Wavelength Range of 750 – 900 nm
Overview
The Compact LX Spider by APE is a portable, compact and robust instrument for spectral and temporal characterization of femtosecond laser pulses. It is the ideal candidate for Ti:Sa laser applications and other ultrashort pulse oscillators or amplifiers in the wavelength range 750 – 900 nm. Two interchangeable Optics Sets are available to cover pulse durations between 16 – 300 fs.
LX - Long Crystal = Compact Design
Based on the popular Spider method (Spectral Phase Interferometry for Direct Electric-field Reconstruction), the Compact LX Spider allows you to visualize the spectral and temporal characteristics of the measured pulse. The patented optical design incorporates a long crystal to up-convert two test pulse replicas. It also introduces spectral shear without the need for an additional chirped pulse. Both the temporal amplitude and the phase are calculated in real-time.
