Description
The industrial-grade optical parametric amplifier I-OPA series represents a new era of simplicity and reliability in wavelength‑tunable femtosecond sources. Building on decades of expertise in optical parametric amplifiers, the I-OPA combines wavelength tunability with a robust industrial design.
Integrated seamlessly into the CARBIDE or PHAROS lasers, the rugged I-OPA offers stability comparable to industrial harmonic generators. Its sealed design provides mechanical stability and eliminates the effects of air turbulence, minimizing energy fluctuations and ensuring stable long-term performance.
The tunable I-OPA provides a wide tuning range and is primarily intended for applications in spectroscopy and microscopy:
I-OPA-HP is optimized for coupling with HARPIA spectroscopy systems, serving as a pump beam source for ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy.
I-OPA-F is tailored for multiphoton microscopy.
I-OPA-ONE is designed for IR spectroscopy and other applications requiring high-energy MIR pulses.
All models also support micromachining and various other industrial applications.
For applications requiring a single wavelength, the fixed-wavelength I-OPA offers a cost-effective and reliable solution.
