MPL300
HIGH ENERGY DPSS PICOSECOND PASSIVELY Q-SWITCHED LASER
MPL300-YLF series high pulse energy, DPSS passively Q-switched picosecond lasers are ideal choice for applications where high peak powers are needed. Diode pumped passively Q-switched single longitudinal mode (SLM) oscillator is the core of the system. Short picosecond optical pulse of 500 ps is directed to multi-pass diode pumped power amplifier for amplification to up to more than 50 mJ pulse energy. The power amplifier(s) are based on novel pump technology (VCSEL), which allows long-life system operation up to 20G shots (compared with standard LD pumping ¬- by order of magnitude longer).
Thermocontrolled harmonic generators available as standard options. Each wavelength has a separate output port. Set of extremely high-performance parameters covers many applications like surface cleaning, material analysis (LIBS), pollution monitoring and many others.
System is supplied with air or water cooling depends on repetition rate. Compact system footprint is welcome point for OEM integrators.
Laser is controlled by supplied user-friendly software via PC USB port with application for Windows™ operating system.
