1030 nm SLM Laser
Item Code: 1030L-21C-NI-NT-NFDescription
1029 nm nanosecond SLM laser module is a turnkey laser featuring single-frequency operation in a very compact package. True SLM operation (each pulse is emitted in the same longitudinal mode) ensures high pulse-to-pulse stability, low jitter, and extremely stable harmonic generation. High pulse energy and pulse-on-demand operation make this laser suitable for sorting, illumination, and pump-probe spectroscopy applications.
Other potential applications of this laser are:
- seeding high power fiber lasers
- seeding optical parametric amplifiers
- supercontinuum generation
- UV generation

1 Measured with a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer having 7.5 Mhz resolution, with scanning frequency of about 10 Hz. Interferometer testing is not provided for each laser being manufactured, the standard test is OSA measurement with 20-30 pm resolution instead.
2 The long term power test is carried out at constant laser body temperature (+/-0.1 °C) using an optical power meter with an input bandwidth of 10 Hz. The actual measurement rate has a period of about 20 seconds to 1 minute.
3 Beam width and height are measured at 0.45 m from output aperture.
4 For lasers without integrated optical isolators.
5 Break-out-boxes AM-C8 and AM-C3 can be used for conversion of UART communication to either USB or RS232.
6 Excluding control interface pins and an output window/fiber assembly.
7 Whichever occurs first. The laser has an integrated operational hours counter.

Photoacoustic imaging
Photoacoustic imaging is a process where powerful laser pulses interact with material by exciting acoustic waves. Similarly, as in ultrasound imaging, the propagating acoustic waves are analyzed by piezo-based detectors (pick-ups), and the complete 3D image is formed by raster scanning or other techniques, such as laser-based holography or interferometry.
