Ultra compact femtosecond laser for biophotonics ALCOR SERIES

from Spark Lasers

ALCOR produces high-average power with ultrashort femtosecond pulses (down to <140 fs) at high repetition rate (80 MHz standard, others optional) in an ultra-compact and robust format, offering fixed wavelength at 920 nm and/or 1064 nm. ALCOR is a fiber laser with a best-in-class quality and collimated beam providing high-stability.

From 2020 it is available the ALCOR 920-4W, the ONLY femtosecond laser offering such a high average power with a fixed wavelength at 920 nm.

The ALCOR lasers can be optionally equipped with XSight fully integrated electronics for fine and fast power modulation (analog and TTL). Besides, should your application require more versatility, FLeXSight unique feature with fiber delivery can also be mounted on the beam output to deliver femtosecond pulses as close as possible to the sample while animal moves freely and data is acquired.

Integrating state of the art high-power full package amplifiers and pulse management, ALCOR offers remarkable pulse quality at high average power with no maintenance required.

Features
  • High repetition rate : 80 MHz
  • High power : from 1W to 4W
  • <140 fs Pulse duration <180 fs (standard)
  • Option for fast gating with TTL signal (<1 us response time)
  • Computer controlled GDD precompensation available
