Single-frequency 100 ps laser with amplified (MOPA) structure, engineered for industrial OEMs and advanced research instrumentation.
Good beam quality, tunable repetition rate, and adjustable pulse energy for demanding applications, including time-gated Raman spectroscopy, high precision LIDAR, and nonlinear or quantum photonics.
Pulse duration and repetition rate can be configured to application requirements.
Standard configurations including 50 ps, 100 ps, 200 ps laser with custom engineering available. A single-frequency nanosecond configuration (up to 1 ns) is also available where a longer pulse suits the application. Ensures high temporal precision and minimal thermal load.
Adjustable repetition rates from single-shot to 200 kHz with trigger-in synchronization. Supports high resolution imaging and fast sensing platforms.
Pulse energies up to 5 µJ and >75 kW peak power. Smooth electronic power control ensures optimal performance across applications.
Stable, single-frequency output with < 0.06 nm linewidth. Provides excellent spectral stability and mode-hop free emission for time-gated Raman spectroscopy and time-resolved analysis applications.
Integrated control electronics with low-jitter optical trigger-out for precise output pulse timing. Optional TTL trigger-in available for active pulse control.
Stable output with M² < 1.3, available in free-space or fiber-coupled formats. Supports precise focusing and long-distance propagation.
The combination of short, down-to-50 ps pulse duration, stable single-frequency operation and adjustable pulse energy makes the CP32 particularly suitable for time-gated Raman spectroscopy
and other advanced spectroscopic techniques where fluorescence suppression and high spectral resolution are required.
The CP32 is well suited for photoacoustic applications requiring short optical excitation pulses with excellent stability and reproducibility. Its short pulse duration (down to 50 ps) and adjustable pulse energy enable efficient photoacoustic signal generation while supporting compact and robust instrument designs.
Short optical pulses, good beam quality and high repetition rates enable demanding ranging and sensing applications requiring high spatial resolution and accurate distance measurements.
The CP32 is based on Picophotonics' proprietary SESAM-based passive Q-switching technology, combining picosecond pulse durations, stable single-frequency operation and a compact microchip architecture.
