Conduction-cooled modules

Conduction-cooled, fiber-coupled 1550 nm diode-laser modules are based on single- or multibar configurations. Modules include 400 µm, NA 0.22, SMA fibers that deliver 5 to 30 W output power depending on the number of diode bars integrated into the module. They are suited for pumping, medical treatments, medical processing and defense applications.

Multichannel TCSPC system

The HydraHarp 400 is a multichannel picosecond-event timer and time-correlated single-photon-counting system (TCSPC) with a USB interface. It is based on a novel time digitizer with 1 ps resolution and has a processing rate of 12.5 million counts/s/channel. The modular design has up to four identical input channels with a common sync channel.
