Used CONTINUUM OPCPA #9050277 for sale

CONTINUUM OPCPA (optically-pumped cavity-PUMPed Amplifier) is a type of ultrafast laser which utilizes a shared-cavity laser architecture. This powerful and efficient laser technology is capable of producing extremely high-intensity, ultrashort light pulses with energy up to several joules, and pulse durations below 100 femtoseconds (1 fs = 10^-15 s). The short pulse duration of the laser pulses makes them ideal for precision applications in various fields such as nanoscience and ultrafast optics experiments. The fundamental structure of an OPCPA consists of three main components: light source-SEED, optical amplifiers-PUMP, and optical cavity. To produce the ultrashort light pulse, a seed pulse is imported into the cavity. The seed pulse passes through an optical amplifier-pump (sometimes referred to as a gain medium) within the cavity, which amplifies the seed pulse power and increases its duration. This amplified pulse then passes into the optical cavity which expels it as an ultrashort laser pulse. The process is highly energy efficient and ensures high optical gain with short pulse duration. When compared to conventional lasers, CONTINUUM OPCPA has a number of advantages which makes it a superior choice for various scientific, industrial, and commercial applications. OPCPA is immune to the thermal blooming effect, which can occur in conventional lasers and limit laser performance. Additionally, the high temporal power and small pulse duration of CONTINUUM OPCPA enable high power pulse shapes and makes the laser ideal for ultrafast processes such as spectroscopy and microscopy. OPCPA laser is also extremely energy efficient due to its efficient optical gain and diminutive pulse duration. The energy used to power the laser is greatly reduced when compared to other types of lasers, such as Ti:sapphire or diode lasers. The high efficiency makes CONTINUUM OPCPA a great choice for applications that require large amounts of power but minimal power expenditure. In conclusion, OPCPA provides an incredibly versatile laser technology which has numerous benefits, including high temporal power, ultra-short pulse duration, and increased energy efficiency. Its wide range of applications makes it an ideal choice for industrial, scientific, and commercial uses.
