Description
The Fused Silica Transmission Grating from Ibsen is a cutting-edge solution designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern femtosecond laser systems. As these systems advance to higher energy levels, the need for pulse compression gratings with exceptional energy and power handling capabilities has become paramount. Ibsen's gratings are crafted from 100% fused silica, providing an unmatched energy/power damage threshold while maintaining high-efficiency spectral performance and minimal wavefront distortion.
Ibsen's pulse compression gratings leverage the company's world-leading expertise in fused silica transmission grating technology. This expertise is complemented by state-of-the-art interferometric patterning and advanced reactive ion etching processes, ensuring superior quality and performance. While Ibsen offers custom and OEM manufacturing options, an increasing number of gratings are available from stock, such as the model described in this overview.
The model PCG-3039.5-450-810 is meticulously engineered to deliver optimal performance at a nominal wavelength of 450 nm with a grating resolution of 3039.5 lines per millimeter. This grating exemplifies Ibsen's commitment to providing high-performance solutions that are both environmentally and thermally stable. With a high diffraction efficiency and low transmitted wavefront distortion, these gratings are ideal for applications requiring precise light manipulation.
Ibsen's dedication to quality is evident in their manufacturing process, which takes place in a Class 10 cleanroom environment. Utilizing two-beam interferometry and reactive ion etching, each grating is crafted to meet stringent specifications. The back-side of the grating is treated with a high-power dielectric anti-reflective coating, further enhancing its performance and durability.
As a trusted partner, Ibsen works closely with customers throughout the design and manufacturing process, from initial concept to volume production of OEM gratings. This collaborative approach ensures that each product not only meets but exceeds the specific needs of the application.
