EPL SERIES Picosecond Pulsed Diode Lasers The EPL picosecond pulsed diode lasers are a family of high performance, cost effective excitation sources for fluorescence lifetime measurements. In Time-Correlated Single Photon Counting (TCSPC) they bridge the gap between the nanosecond flashlamp and expensive mode-locked Titanium sapphire femtosecond lasers. In addition, their external trigger capability enables their use as excitation sources in Multi-Channel Scaling (MCS) mode. The EPL lasers are pre-adjusted for an optimum pulse width, with particular attention paid to reducing a secondary shoulder characteristic of picosecond diode lasers. The output has a typical pulse width of less than 100 ps. KEY FEATURES Optimised for TCSPC 15 pre-set repetition frequencies from 2.5 KHz to 20 MHz External trigger capability Spectrally purified output Fully integrated & compact design Extremely low RF radiation Optimised collimated beam Drive electronics included The EPL lasers are robust, maintenance free, easy to operate and have proprietary beam conditioning optics.
