Description
The LD-527 PIV Series is an evolution of the well-established LDY range of lasers. With data gathered from years of use in the field, the next generation of diode-pumped Nd:YLF lasers offers improved performance and reliability over its predecessor, giving energies of up to 30 mJ per cavity at 1 kHz. The lasers are built around a rugged self-supporting Invar rail that bestows excellent mechanical and optical stability. This, coupled with the proprietary resonator design, leads to excellent output beams that are spatially and temporally extremely smooth and stable, giving rise to light sheets that offer almost identical shot-to-shot illumination. The robust design of these lasers suits them to the harshest of industrial applications and research applications alike. The power supply and closed-circuit chiller are all housed in a compact rack. The system can be controlled either by the built-in LCD interface or via RS232 with the supplied software suite or DLL, and external triggering of the lasers is accessible via a TTL interface.
