Quantum Cascade Laser System

The Cascade Laser System is a pulsed QC Laser Driver capable of operating at high power and duty cycle, whilst efficient peltier cooling enables laser temperatures down to -45 °C to be attained. Variable pulse lengths from 10ns up to 10µs allow the laser to be operated either in true pulsed or quasi-CW regimes.

Consisting of three units, the laser module, electronic card and optional USB interface module, combine to provide unparalleled levels of performance in a compact and robust package suitable for both laboratory and OEM applications.

The developer module (LM-03-D) has the same functionality as the standard laser module but has been designed to allow ultra fast laser exchange. As such it is ideally suited to the laboratory environment where easy interchange of the laser is a priority. A vacuum port is provided enabling the laser enclosure to be evacuated, giving enhanced laser and peltier lifetime. The module can be supplied with either a forced air or water cooled heat sink, which ensures excellent cooling performance from the inbuilt peltier element. Design features, such as integrated pulse circuitry and enhanced RF screening, allow unprecedented levels of performance in terms of pulse stability, pulse amplitude, duty cycle and repetition rate.
