Laser Equipment

The VIBRANT is an integrated, turn-key
Tunable Laser System. All the system
components, including the pump laser, the
OPO, and the control electronics are mounted
on a single optical frame.
The VIBRANT 266 I incorporate a type I OPO
pumped by the Fourth harmonics of the
Brilliant laser at 266 nm. The patented
MagicPrism OPO (US patent # 5276548) is
Ring Oscillator resulting in high conversion
efficiency. The walkoff and the beam steering
are cancelled by the two crystal configuration,
and the beam positioning is not affected by
wavelength tuning. The Signal beam is
separated from the Idler inside the OPO and
the Idler is blocked.VIBRANT 355 II Specifications Comments
