Shields up! Protect your optics from laser debris
PLACING anything in the path of a high-power laser presents certain risks, and that includes the expensive optics that are part of the experiment. While these may not be damaged by the laser itself, they may be in the path…
Benchtop laser brings SERDS into the lab
We’re used to hearing about laboratories being populated by nerds, but Laser Components wants to see SERDS making its presence felt. Shifted Excitation Raman Differential Spectroscopy, SERDS, is a technique in which two Raman spectra generated by slightly different excitation…
Scientific lasers hit 18W
WITH output powers of 12, 15, and 18 Watts, Coherent says its new Verdi G series of 532nm scientific grade lasers offer many advantages over earlier lower-power models. Despite their higher output, the new Verdi G12, Verdi G15, and Verdi…
Wavelength extender boosts supercontinuum generation
SPECIFICALLY designed for supercontinuum generation when used with femtosecond Ti:Sapphire lasers, Newport’s SCG-02 wavelength extender is said to be ideal for a variety of spectroscopy and nonlinear microscopy applications. Laser input is split into two parallel beams – the fundamental…
Lasers output 4W at 514nm
COHERENT says the newest members of its Genesis family of solid-state lasers are the first to offer multi-Watt output at 514nm. This makes them useful in life science applications such as fluorescence studies, and in bioinstrumentation. They are also useful…
