Wavelength Extender Provides A Modular Solution For Supercontinuum Generation

The SCG-02 wavelength extender is designed as a modular solution for supercontinuum generation when used with femtosecond Ti:Sapphire lasers such as the company’s Spectra-Physics’ Tsunami, MaiTai DeepSee, and MaiTai oscillators. Suitable for a variety of spectroscopy and microscopy applications, the laser input is split into two parallel beams: the fundamental pump and a parallel, unfiltered broadband supercontinuum.  This allows for both the external selection of particular spectra of interest and the independent use or recombination of both beams.  The fundamental beam passes through an integrated attenuator to enable precise control of the output power. The SCG-02 is factory preassembled and pre-aligned. Other features include manual controls to attenuate fundamental throughput and to generate parallel, broadband supercontinuum output.
