PG700 series Optical parametric generators

PG700 series Optical parametric generators
PG700 series OPGs are excellent choice for researchers who need picosecond tunable sources from mid IR to far IR. Featuring 1 kHz repetition rate and due to the unique broad tunability range these devices are a very attractive and cost-efficient alternative to other tunable laser radiation sources.

1) All specifications subject to change without notice. The parameters marked typical are not specifications. They are indications of typical performance and will vary with each unit we manufacture. Unless stated otherwise all specifications are measured at 450 nm.
2) Pulse energies are specified at selected wavelengths. See typical tuning curves for pulse energies at other wavelengths.
3) Measured at 1620 nm.
4) For 1 kHz pulse train. 1 kHz train is on the top of low power 88 MHz pulse train.
5) Measured at 3000 nm.
6) Measured at 5000 nm.
7) Typical linewidth in DFG range < 0.8 cm-1.
8) Pulse duration vary depending on wavelength and pump energy.
9) Beam diameter at the 1/e2 point and can vary depending on the pump pulse energy.
10) Full angle measured at the 1/e2 point.
11) Separate output ports for SH, signal, idler and DFG ranges.
12) Should be specified while ordering.
