The Opolette UX Tunable Laser Series is the world’s smallest tunable laser system which is available in three different models to offer tuning over UV/VIS to NIR, tuning over the nIR or tuning over the MIR.
OPOTEK continues its tradition of offering the smallest form factor tunable lasers with the Opolette UX. Built to accommodate diverse customer needs, the Opolette UX fits the tight constraints of the modern laboratory while continuing to offer wide tunable ranges from the UV to MIR.
The Opolette UX series utilise optical parametric oscillator (OPO) technology to generate wavelengths over the broad tuning range of each laser. Designed for portability, the Opolette UX is end user installable and the alignment can be verified if relocated. All tunable beams exit the system from the same port resulting in one beam path to the end-user’s application. Wavelength tuning is motorized and computer controlled. Hermetically sealed modules protect sensitive optical materials from the environment and wavelength tuning is hands free and computer controlled.
The Opolette UX series lasers are available with the following specifications: –
