▶ Other laser spectroscopy applications
NT352 series tunable laser seamlessly integrates in a compact housing a nanosecond optical parametric oscillator and Nd:YAG Q-switched laser.
Three models with different output pulse energy values are offered. The most powerful model has more than 150 mJ pulse energy at 700 nm.
Narrow linewidth (<10 cm⁻¹) is nearly constant trough whole tuning range, which makes laser suitable for many spectroscopy application.
The device is controlled from the remote keypad or from PC through RS232 interface using LabVIEW™ drivers that are supplied with the system. The remote pad features a backlit display that is easy to read even while wearing laser safety glasses.
System is designed for easy and cost-effective maintenance. Replacement of flashlamps can be done without misalignment of the laser cavity and deterioration of laser performance. OPO pump energy monitoring system helps to increase lifetime of the optical components.
Optional items are available allowing optimization of the laser system for Your application, for example:
▶ Fiber coupled output in 350–2000 nm range;
▶ Efficient second harmonic generator for 330–530 nm range;
▶ Pulse energy attenuator;
▶ Water-air cooled power supply.Please inquire custom-build versions and options.

1) Due to continuous improvement, all specifications are subject to change without notice. The parameters marked typical are not specifications. They are indications of typical performance and will vary with each unit we manufacture. Unless stated otherwise all specifications are measured at 700 nm and for basic system without options.
2) Measured at 700 nm for OPO and 350 nm for SH. See tuning curves for typical outputs at other wavelengths.
3) In signal and idler range.
4) When wavelength is controlled from PC. When wavelength is controlled from keypad, tuning resolution is 0.1 nm for signal, 1 nm for idler and 0.5 nm for SH.
5) FWHM measured with photodiode featuring 1 ns rise time and 300 MHz bandwidth oscilloscope.
6) Beam diameter is measured at 700 nm at the 1/e² level and can vary depending on the pump pulse energy.
7) Full angle measured at the FWHM level at 700 nm.
8) Separate output port for the 532 nm beam is standard. Output for 1064 nm beam is optional. Pump laser output will be optimized for OPO operation and specification may vary with each unit we manufacture.
9) At 10 Hz pulse repetition rate. Air cooled power supply is available as option.
10) Mains voltage should be specified when ordering.
11) At 10/20 Hz pulse repetition rate.
PERFORMANCE
ORDERING INFORMATION
Note: Laser must be connected to the mains electricity all the time. If there will be no mains electricity for longer that 1 hour then laser (system) needs warm up for a few hours before switching on.
