Description
The MultiLux™-20-40-46-CW-SYST is a cutting-edge laser system designed to deliver high brightness and power across multiple wavelengths, making it an exceptional choice for those seeking advanced infrared laser solutions. This turn-key system offers multiwatt continuous wave power output at room temperature for short wavelength infrared (SWIR) and two midwave infrared (MWIR) wavelengths. The laser outputs are meticulously engineered to be collinear and collimated, ensuring optimal beam quality with a remarkably low M² value. This superior beam quality is crucial for applications requiring precision and long-distance projection.
This advanced system is capable of providing over 3 watts of continuous wave power at wavelengths ranging from 4.4 µm to 4.8 µm, over 2 watts at 3.7 µm to 4.2 µm, and over 3 watts at 1.9 µm to 2.1 µm. The precision alignment ensures that the collinearity between the laser outputs is better than 1 milliradian, allowing for seamless integration into various applications. Each laser wavelength's power output can be independently controlled and modulated with arbitrary pulse sequences, offering unmatched flexibility. Additionally, the system can be customized with other combinations of SWIR, MWIR, and long wave infrared (LWIR) wavelengths to meet specific requirements.
The MultiLux™-20-40-46-CW-SYST is not just about power; it is about precision and adaptability. The laser head features a SWIR fiber laser and two hermetically encapsulated MWIR lasers, each with its own thermoelectric cooler and collimating lens. The beam combining optics ensure a single collimated beam containing all three wavelengths, with the beams aligned to be nearly identical in diameter and collinear. The system is air-cooled and includes a comprehensive laser protection system, making it robust and reliable for various environments. With its compact design and lightweight construction, it is easy to integrate into existing setups, providing a versatile solution for advanced laser applications.
