5. picoEMERALD – all-in-one CARS source
remote controlled, truly hands-free one-box CARS light source
two tunable ultrafast laser pulse trains
high power (typically 10W) picosecond oscillator, a frequency doubling to 532 nm and a synchronously pumped OPO in a single housing
optical modules were optimized by finite element analyses and mechanical stability algorithms (misalignment stability optimization) to exhibit maximum passive stability
active resonator control of the high power picosecond oscillator and the OPO.
three fully automated temporally and spatially overlapping ultrafast pulse trains:
1064 nm out of the laser oscillator
690 nm to 990 nm (signal range)
1150 nm to 2300 nm (idler range)
