PT501

Integrated, tunable picosecond laser system in the mid-infrared range

The PT501 series laser systems integrate a picosecond optical parametric oscillator (OPO) and a pump laser in a single, compact housing. This ensures a particularly robust and stable system architecture with improved long-term stability, reduced maintenance costs and simplified installation.

Applications
The sum makes the difference

SFG spectroscopy (Sum-Frequency Generation) is a non-linear optical method for investigating molecules on surfaces and interfaces (e.g. solid-liquid, solid-gas). Two laser beams – one visible and one infrared – are superimposed to generate a sum frequency signal that only occurs on non-centrosymmetric structures. By tuning the IR beam to molecular vibrations, SFG delivers selective and …
