HarmoniXX THG
Third Harmonic Generation – Frequency Tripling for Tunable and Fixed Frequency Laser
Third Harmonic Generation
As part of our HarmoniXX product line, the HarmoniXX THG is a frequency converter for tripling the frequency of ultra short-pulse lasers. Third Harmonic Generation is a generation of photons with a tripled frequency. Three photons are employed, creating a single photon at three times the frequency.
User-friendly Design
Unlike conventional triplers, the HarmoniXX THG requires less adjustment efforts because no separation and recombination of the interacting beams is needed. This user-friendly feature has one common optical beam path for all interacting beams. It is implemented by means of a proprietary delay compensator and provides consistent spatial overlap for optimum efficiency.
At a Glance
- High conversion efficiency
- Easy alignment and automatic wavelength tuning
- Suitable for both tunable and fixed frequency fs and ps lasers
- Excellent pointing stability and beam profile
- Remote operation via software GUI
