VPL SERIES

VPL SERIES

VPL SERIES

Product catalog summary
Overview: The VPL series of diode lasers are designed for variable width pulse generation ranging from nanoseconds to milliseconds, as well as continuous wave (CW) operation with power outputs up to 60 mW. These lasers are optimized for long photoluminescence lifetime measurements using the Multi-Channel Scaling (MCS) detection method.
Key Features:
  • Optimized for MCS with 14 pre-set pulse widths from 50 ns to 1 ms.
  • External trigger capability allows for adjustment of pulse width and repetition rate.
  • Operation in CW mode with spectrally purified output.
  • Compact, plug-and-play design with extremely low RF radiation and optimized collimated beam.
Specifications:
  • Pulse Widths: Ranges from <70 ns to 1000 μs.
  • External Trigger: Pulse width and repetition rate defined by external trigger input with a maximum duty cycle of 50%.
  • Bias Supply: 15 Vdc +/- 5%, 15W.
  • Trigger Output: SMA, NIM Standard.
  • Interlock and Trigger Input: Hirose HR10A-7P-4P(73) connectors.
  • Beam Quality: 10% - 90% knife edge method with beam diameter < 9.5 mm at output aperture.
  • Physical Dimensions: 168 mm length x 64 mm x 64 mm, weight 750 g.
Safety and Compliance: The VPL series is classified as a Class 3B laser product, requiring adherence to laser safety regulations to avoid harmful exposure to the eyes and skin. It complies with US federal laser product performance standards and IEC 60825-1:2014.
Customer Support: Available worldwide.

VPL SERIES-1

VPL SERIES Adjustable Pulse Width Diode Lasers The VPL series of diode lasers provide variable width pulses in the ns to ms range, as well as CW operation with powers up to 60 mW. KEY FEATURES Optimised for MCS 14 Pre-set pulse widths from 50 ns to 1 ms They are optimised for long photoluminescence lifetime measurements using the Multi-Channel Scaling (MCS) detection method. The width of the excitation pulses is easily controlled from the VPL allowing quick optimisation of the measurement conditions. External trigger capability The VPL lasers are compact, maintenance free, and user-friendly. Although they are designed to match Edinburgh Instruments spectrometers, they can be incorporated into any experiment thanks to their external trigger capability. Spectrally purified output Adjust pulse width and repetition rate with input trigger pulse Operation in CW mode Compact plug-and-play design Extremely low RF radiation Optimised collimated beam
