Matisse® C Compact Ultra-Narrow Linewidth Ti:Sapphire Tunable Ring Laser - 1

Matisse® C Compact Ultra-Narrow Linewidth Ti:Sapphire Tunable Ring Laser The Spectra-Physics Matisse C is a fully automated and compact single frequency ultrastable, Out of Plane tunable ring laser. The Matisse C system has the industry’s highest output power, the narrowest external linewidth, and the broadest mode-hop-free tuning range. The compact, sealed, and fully automated design with broadband mirrors and specially developed optical mounts provide long term stability and truly hands free operation. Coupled with the Millennia® eV™ pump laser, the Matisse C produces up to 6.5 W of output power. The Matisse C provides more than 300 nm of tuning with one optics set and linewidths down to 30 kHz. Fully Automated The Matisse C is fully automated for truly hands free operation. The laser is controlled with an intuitive GUI for quick and easy wavelength selection, piezo scanning, and frequency locking. It is housed in a compact closed box with no external adjustment knobs. Broadband coated mirrors enable uninterrupted tuning across 700–1000 nm while eliminating the need to change optics sets. High Power and Broad Tuning Broadband optics provides 700–1000 nm automated continuous tuning. Other wavelength options are available for higher power at specific wavelength ranges between 670 nm and 1038 nm. In addition, custom mirrors are available for specific wavelengths, such as 2 W at 671 nm, for unique experimental needs. Matisse C Advantage • Compact, sealed, fully automated design • Hands free operation • Broad tuning range (>300 nm) with one optics set • High-resolution spectroscopy • Atom cooling and magneto-optic trapping • Atomic clocks • Bose-Einstein condensates • Frequency combs • Quantum computing • Microcavity resonators • Quantum applications • Widest mode-hop-free piezo tuning >50 GHz • Scan Stitching for mode-hop-free tuning up to 300 nm • Extended scans over nanometers (requires wavemeter) • Highest output power available >6.5 W

Matisse C Frequency Stabilization Matisse CR A unique phase lock loop technique provides <2 MHz linewidth with passive frequency stabilization. The Matisse CR can be readily upgraded to the higher resolution Matisse CS. Matisse CS The Matisse CS actively-stabilized Ti:Sapphire ring laser utilizes a reference cavity and offers a spectral linewidth of <50 kHz. Matisse CX The Matisse CX provides spectral linewidths to below 20 kHz. This ultra-narrow linewidth is achieved by use of an intra-cavity electro-optic modulator (EOM) and the PoundDrever-Hall stabilization scheme with a high finesse...
