Description

The Novanta taccor tune is an advanced femtosecond laser designed for precision-driven scientific and industrial applications where wavelength tunability and ultrafast pulse delivery are critical. This model is part of Novanta's acclaimed taccor series, known for its exceptional performance and reliability.

Key features of the taccor tune include a tunable wavelength range from 740 nm to 930 nm, which can be adjusted using either a touchscreen interface or control software. This broad tunability makes it uniquely suitable for a variety of applications, including optical spectroscopy, nonlinear imaging, and materials science research.

The taccor tune operates at a 1 GHz repetition rate, with an option to enhance this to 10 GHz, providing a finer temporal resolution and faster data acquisition rates. It delivers pulses that can be less than 30 femtoseconds in duration, with average power outputs up to 1.8 W. These short pulse durations are ideal for resolving extremely fast physical phenomena and for high-precision material processing.

Integral to the taccor tune’s design is its compact, hermetically sealed laser head, which houses the Ti:Sapphire oscillator and pump laser. This design ensures robust resistance to vibrations and thermal fluctuations, promoting stable operation even in challenging environments. The laser system's intelligent control unit continuously monitors performance, conducting diagnostics to ensure optimal operation and extending the laser's lifetime by preventing common issues before they affect performance.

Additionally, the taccor tune incorporates Novanta's patented CEPLoQ™ technology for phase stabilization, which directly modulates the pump power to achieve quick and stable responses, thereby enhancing the system's overall reliability and efficiency.
