for Your Application. OBIS philosophy Different technologies continue to serve a demand for distinct wavelengths in Life Sciences and other instrumentation applications. Coherent has set the standard in reliability for these applications with its laser diode and optically pumped semiconductor laser based solutions. What was missing, and what was required by researchers, was a smart laser platform – one that utilized available technologies but had the ability to provide wavelengths throughout the spectrum. A laser platform that had intelligence designed in, but with a design that would offer...

This is OBIS. A Smart Laser. Plug-and-play value OBIS is a breakthrough laser platform offering plug-and-play simplicity that allows for faster integration thereby reducing the cost of integration and time to market. With its smart electronics, integrated controller and compact packaging, OBIS completely eliminates the cost and complexity of separate controllers. OBIS is the smallest – and smartest – laser platform on the market. Simply plug in the DC source and your laser is operating. The choice of different ways to interface with the laser allows the user the ability to choose the...

Widest range of wavelengths The OBIS family includes lasers from the UV (375 nm) to the near IR (785 nm). First, by utilizing Coherent’s proprietary Optically Pumped Semiconductor Laser (OPSL) technology. The unique wavelength scalability of OPSLs allows OBIS to tailor wavelengths to application requirements instead of vice versa. With Coherent’s OPSL technology, the OBIS solutions are able to meet the center range of visible wavelengths. Second, Coherent’s laser diode based solutions cover the edges of the wavelength spectrum. While two different technologies are used within the OBIS...
