Low Power CW 488 nm Lasers- Cyan™ Scientific - 1

CyanTTM Scientific Low Power CW 488 nm Lasers The Spectra-Physics Cyan™ Scientific CW 488 nm laser provides researchers with unprecedented beam quality and reliability at power levels of 10-100 mW. Based on a highly reliable externally doubled diode laser, the Cyan Scientific laser provides intrinsically single-frequency operation with best-inclass power and wavelength stability. Designed to minimize space requirements, the compact Cyan laser head measures only 125 x 70 x 34 mm and is ready for use right out of the box. The Cyan Scientific laser emits an optical beam in a single spatial mode (M2 <1.1), allowing for tight focusing and uniform sample illumination. With an integrated active power control system, the Cyan Scientific laser automatically locks output power over the entire operating temperature range, providing power stability better than 1%. With a linewidth of <1 MHz, the Cyan Scientific laser is ideal for Raman spectroscopy, interferometry and other applications requiring high coherence and spectral stability. Intensity noise of less than 0.2% makes the Cyan Scientific the favored light source for demanding applications in bioinstrumentation, particle measurement, and confocal microscopy. Engineered to an extraordinary level of reliability, the Cyan Scientific delivers a multi-year product lifetime and low overall cost of ownership. Rigorous reliability studies show the Cyan Scientific has a lifetime up to 25 times longer than other competing light sources. The Cyan Scientific laser’s standalone power supply accepts input voltages ranging from 90 to 240 VAC at 50/60 Hz. For ease of use, the auto-ranging power supply eliminates DC converters and runs off regular wall current. Even at the highest output power, the Cyan draws less than 15 W in typical laboratory settings, far less than Ar-ion or comparable DPSS lasers. This reduces the need for bulky and expensive heatsinks. An integrated analog interface enables remote configuration of the laser. And the Cyan Scientific laser provides interface for remote interlocks, conforming to IEC 60825-1 and CFR 1040.101. The Cyan Scientific Advantage • Single-mode operation at 488 ±0.5 nm • Output power of 10 mW to 100 mW • Best-in-class power and wavelength stability • Active power control enables quick start-up and automated operation • Compact laser head easily integrates into most experiments • True single-frequency operation for demanding applications such as Raman spectroscopy • Built-in interlock interface and mechanical shutter ensure safe operation and CDRH compliance • Low power consumption eliminates need for large heatsinks and cooling mechanisms • Long lifetime–up to 25x longer than competing light sources–ensures low cost of ownership
