Daylight Solutions is proud to announce the Über Tuner™ series of broadly tunable ECqcL™ (External Cavity quantum cascade Lasers). These pulsed lasers allow unprecedented access to high-brightness coherent light in the mid-IR. We now offer up to 250 cm-1 or 1.6 µm of tunability in a single package with narrow linewidth and easy tunability. The Über Tuner™ also offers higher powers – up to 400 mW and even more with the high-power option.
The broad tuning of the Über Tuner™ series lasers are just right for sensing and stand-off detection experiments as well as solid and liquid phase spectroscopy and imaging. Daylight Solutions - The source for all applications in the Mid-IR.
Features
- ≥ 250 cm-1 or 1.6 µm tuning
- Available wavelengths: 6.8, 8.3, 9.1. 10.5, & 11.6 µm
