‘Tunable Lasers’
An Electronicstalk guide
Start with the news release Line laser can be focused without tools from Laser Components, which we summarised at the time by saying "Capable of being precisely focused without the use of any tools, the Flexpoint MV Focus line laser features a homogeneous power distribution and a counter screw to prevent accidental readjusment.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Spectrum analyser with high wavelength range from Yokogawa - Test and Measurement: "The AQ6370C from Yokogawa combines accuracy and resolution with ultra-high dynamic range, comprehensive interfacing and ease of use.".
In October 2010, we covered the news from Laser Components - take a look at Infrared optics offered for CO2 laser systems which says: "Laser Components supplies a range of infrared optics for CO2 lasers that are designed and optimised for 10.6um, together with high laser damage thresholds. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Ocean Optics, Ocean Optics launches compact NIR spectrometer, as well as NI offers PXI Express module for FBG sensors from National Instruments, and Fibre-coupled lasers suit biochemical analyses from Laser Components.
