Description
Levante IR is a cutting-edge, synchronously pumped Optical Parametric Oscillator (OPO) engineered for seamless integration with mode-locked lasers operating at a wavelength of 1 µm. Designed with innovation and user-friendliness in mind, Levante IR offers an impressive output wavelength spanning approximately 1300 nm to 5000 nm. This tunable IR OPO is available in both picosecond and femtosecond versions, ensuring versatility and adaptability for various scientific and industrial applications.
The synchronous pumping scheme of Levante IR ensures a jitter-free and stable repetition rate that matches the pump laser's rate. This precision is crucial for applications demanding high stability and accuracy. The automated wavelength tuning feature simplifies the process, allowing users to effortlessly adjust the OPO to the desired wavelength range.
Equipped with a user-friendly control software, Levante IR provides real-time data display and facilitates remote control through a TCP/IP-based standard software interface. This capability enables users to design automated measurement routines easily, utilizing protocol templates compatible with popular programming languages like C++, C#, LabVIEW, Python, Matlab, and Ruby. This flexibility is ideal for researchers and engineers looking to integrate the OPO into complex experimental setups.
The Levante IR's Signal beam offers a wavelength range of 1315 to 2000 nm, while the Idler output spans 2150 to 5000 nm. When paired with APE's HarmoniXX series, the extended wavelength range from 660 nm to 15 µm can be achieved, providing additional versatility for applications such as vibrational spectroscopy. The integration of wavelength converters like SHG, THG, and DFG further enhances the system's capability, making Levante IR a comprehensive solution for advanced optical research.
