Introducing OPOTEK’s third-generation, high-energy, tunable lasers based on OPO technology.
With a new advanced tuning mechanism and diode-pumped solid state (DPSS) pump laser, take your application
to the next level with up to ten times higher repetition rates and wide tunability from the deep UV to
near infrared.
Acquiring more data points per second improves signal averaging and allows the detection of
experimental events in real time and increases imaging frame rates.
SYSTEM FEATURES

• Fiber bundle compatible output ports
AVAILABLE OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES
Extended Tuning Range: Extends the tuning range to 210-2400 nm (C3030U) or 330-2400 nm (C3020D).
Motorized Variable Attenuator (MVA): Mounted, motorized and computer-controlled Glan Laser polarizer that allows continuously attenuation from 100% down to 1% while
maintaining maximum pulse to pulse stability. End user removable/installable. Reduces max pulse energy by 10-15% when installed. Can only be used with visible and nearinfrared
wavelengths and should be removed when operating below 400 nm if applicable.
Integrated Fiber Bundle (FB): Fiber bundle is installed directly into the auto-locking OPO output port. For optimal performance, an internal lens is installed inside the system.
The lens can be removed by the end user for free space access. Typical transmission is 60-70% at shorter wavelengths and 40-60% at longer wavelengths.
Fiber bundles are 2.0 m long with 3.0-5.0 mm input/output diameters and numerical aperture of 0.37. Can only be used with visible and near-infrared wavelengths and
should be removed when operating below 400 nm if applicable.
Wavemeter (WM): Integrated Wavemeter for real-time monitoring of wavelengths (some wavelengths through interpolation) and enabling harmonic auto optimization from
near peak energies. Patch fiber and optics included to connect laserhead to Wavemeter.
Fast Tuning (FT): Change tuning speed from seconds to < 50 ms between any wavelength in the Signal or Idler.
