Description
The Levante Emerald is a state-of-the-art, widely tunable, and fully automated Near-Infrared Optical Parametric Oscillator (NIR-OPO). This advanced system offers an impressive output wavelength range from 640 nm to 2300 nm, making it a versatile choice for various scientific and industrial applications. Designed to work seamlessly with a green pump laser, the Levante Emerald accommodates pulse widths from 2 to 20 picoseconds and pump powers ranging from 2 to 20 watts. This adaptability ensures that the generated pulses are near the transformation limit, providing high beam quality and stable long-term operation. The robust mechanical design of the Levante Emerald guarantees excellent beam stability, making it a reliable tool for researchers and engineers.
The Levante Emerald stands out with its full automation capabilities, which include software-controlled tuning. This is achieved through cutting-edge control electronics and internal diagnostic systems, all managed via an intuitive software interface. The PC control software, equipped with a command interface via TCP/IP, allows for seamless integration into larger test setups and software-controlled environments. Users can effortlessly tune the wavelength by simply entering the desired value into the control software. The system accurately measures the actual wavelength and bandwidth of the OPO Signal with a high-resolution real-time spectrometer, while calibrated photodiodes ensure precise power measurement.
The Levante Emerald offers a sweep function for rapid tuning over a specific wavelength range, allowing for automatic transitions from an initial to a final wavelength in minimal time. This feature is complemented by predefined hold times for spectral steps, enhancing the user experience. The system simultaneously provides Signal and Idler beams, which are collinearly radiated from the OPO, ensuring perfect spatial and temporal overlap at the output.
This continuous tunability of photon energy differences between Signal and Idler makes the Levante Emerald an ideal choice for multi-color excitation experiments, such as Stimulated Raman Scattering (SRS) and Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Scattering (CARS), as well as multi-photon microscopy. With its comprehensive automation, precise control, and versatile capabilities, the Levante Emerald is a powerful tool for researchers and professionals seeking advanced solutions in laser technology.
