Xenon Flash Lamps

HAMAMATSU Xenon Flash Lamps Xenon flash lamps are pulsed light sources that emit light with an instantaneously high peak output. The emitted light is a continuous spectrum spanning from the UV to the infrared region and is used for a wide range of applications including chemical analysis and imaging. Hamamatsu provides high-quality, high-precision xenon flash lamps designed and manufactured entirely in-house. Peripheral devices such as specially designed power supplies and trigger sockets are also available to extract maximum performance from xenon flash lamps. High efficiency High...
