pulseCheck Single
The Perfect Tool to Characterize Single Pulses and Low Repetition Rate Lasers
Single-Shot Laser Pulse Characterization
The pulseCheck Single completes APE’s portfolio of autocorrelators by featuring single-shot measurements of ultra-short, low repetition rate laser amplifiers, as well as the capability to measure high repetition rate laser. Single-shot measurements of for example Ti:sapphiere-based or Ytterbium-based, kHz amplifier systems is no issue. This comprehensive insight makes the pulseCheck Single an indispensable tool for fine-tuning ultrafast lasers, particularly during adjustments like grating alignments or compressor tweaks.
Comprehensive Pulse Analysis and Statistics
pulseCheck Single’s software is designed for maximum usability without compromising on depth. Its clean, modern interface allows full control of all device parameters with just a few intuitive clicks. The software provides a wide range of parameters and statistics. Track the autocorrelation trace, beam properties, pulse duration along the beam profile, beam pointing and energy stability and more at one glance. Save your data and compare with previous results easily.
Real-Time Feedback for Laser Optimization
The single-shot operation and fast refresh rate allow to record pulse duration changes in the fastest possible way. Due to its built-in camera system, the pulseCheck Single can capture the pulse duration as well as the spatial properties of the laser beam in one direction simultaneously.
Easy Alignment and Robust Design with no Moving Parts
Alignment is dead simple without the need for any additional adjustments or tweaking, saving you precious time and effort when you need it. The compact footprint and minimal hardware requirements make it easy to integrate into any lab environment. Laser polarization is not an issue. Just flip the device to adjust to your needs.
Plug & Play Operation
With pulseCheck Single, the device setup is as streamlined as the measurements. A single USB 3.1 connection provides both data transfer and power supply. Simply plug pulseCheck Single into your labtop or lab workstation and it’s ready to operate.
