Introduction
The nanoLevante3 is a compact and rugged source of nanosecond laser pulses in the Mid and Near Infrared range. It offers tunable pulses at around 3 µm and 1.65 µm (on request between 4 µm and 1.4 µm) in a rarely covered pulse parameter regime – up to hundreds of µJ pulse energy and kHz repetition rate.
Due to the specific design and the active Q-switching the repetition rate can be changed without any pulse parameter variation. It ranges from single shot up to 1 kHz by either internal or external trigger and allows for pulse on demand operation.
Wavelength, repetition rate and pulse energy are set via the easy to use Control Software or remotely via the software interface. The output power is monitored and displayed in the Control Software.
With its integrated pump laser the nanoLevante3 is a compact and easy to use pulsed laser source with outstanding reliability for many applications.
