Description

The Zenith is a picosecond OPO based laser system broadly tunable in the 1387 – 4000 nm (2500 – 7209 cm^-1) range. Featuring the highest power levels in the market [>4W across 1387 – 2020 nm (4950 – 7209 cm^-1) and >2W across 2100 – 4000 nm (2500 – 4761 cm^-1)], Zenith delivers a powerful and convenient source for ultrafast spectroscopy and pump-probe experimental sciences.

The picosecond OPO Zenith has been especially designed for fully-automated tuning to enhance usability and practicality in applications. A simple and reliable control software renders it an extremely convenient hands-free system which enables the researcher to effectively focus on advancing their research with minimum time investment in laser maintenance. Control drivers are available.

Three output ports deliver: 1) the signal, 2) the idler and 3) the pump bypass. Excellent beam pointing stability with time and wavelength is provided.

Zenith is a sealed fully-integrated laser system, incorporating the pump laser and OPO, which ensures maximum compactness and stability.

The Zenith is provided directly by Radiantis.
