LaserNest® High‐Performance Desktop Diode Lasers for industrial, scientific and laboratory use

The LaserNest® systems are a combination of the well‐established LuxX+ diode lasers and a desktop‐style housing. This combination represents an easy to use plug&play laser light source for science, research and industry.

Features
  • Plug and play desktop laser for laboratory use
  • More than 30 different wavelengths and up to 500mW output power
  • Optional fail-safe safety shutter
  • Fibre coupling for SM/PM fibres, MM fibres or Liquid Light Guides

Further information

The high-performance systems can be equipped with one laser module of wavelengths from UV to the near IR range and offer fast analogue intensity modulation with up to 3MHz and high-speed digital modulation up to 250MHz. Additional electronic shutter function provides full ON/OFF modulation with a switching time of <1µs and frequencies up to 500kHz.

The light output can be either single-mode (polarization-maintaing) fibres, multi-mode fibres or Liquid Light Guides.

The LuxX+ laser modules within the “LaserNest” are available with up to 500 milliwatt of optical output power and more than 30 different wavelengths between 375 and 1550nm. Optional clean-up filters and a fail-safe laser safety shutter can be directly installed in the system to adapt the “LaserNest” systems to the customer’s application and safety requirements. Modulation inputs with software-selectable voltage ranges and impedance ensure easy interfacing to external devices like cameras, microscopes or DAC cards.

The device can be conveniently controlled via the integrated USB-2.0 interface by the included software „Omicron Control Center“ or third party software.

• High-Stability CW operation (constant-current or constant-power mode)

• Fast analogue modulation >3MHz

• Ultrafast digital modulation >250MHz

• Electronic shutter function (laser inhibit) with >500kHz full ON/OFF capability

• Automatic Aging Compensation (AAC) function

• USB2.0 and RS-232 interface

• Drivers for Metamorph, LabVIEW and Micromanager available

Each LaserNest diode laser is delivered with the Omicron Control Center (OCC) – Laser Control Software.

The software can control multiple lasers and offers a master section which controls all lasers in parallel. The OCC can be used for daily use or just once for configuring the laser for computer independent operation.
