Description:
ModeCW is a turn-key operated, high-power and low-noise MOPA (Master Oscillator Power Amplifier) laser at 1560 nm wavelength. It is a one-box solution that includes control electronics, power supply and the optical engine. Ideal for laboratory experimental research in metrology, atom cooling, spectroscopy. A perfect source for pumping of Cr:ZnS/Se oscillators.
Main features:
- Integrated single-frequency seed source
- Linear polarization, excellent single-mode beam
- High output power (up to 6W)
- Excellent noise properties (integrated RIN lower than 0.008% in the 1 Hz - 1 MHz range)
- Maintenance-free, button-operated
- Single-box solution, 19” rack 3U
