Subject: RFQ for Actively frequency-stabilized CW single-frequency ring Ti:Sapphire laser TIS-SF-777

I need a quote for this laser.
I'll need the highest power available and less than 100 kHz linewidth.
What is the power output at 780 for the middle optics set? I want to be able to operate at 780 nm, 800 nm, 850 nm, or 920 nm with several Watts of power.
Please include shipping/freight and installation. Do you have a service plan? Please include the details and price if you do.

Also, you mention locking to an atomic line: Can I choose the line? How would I change it later if I wanted to lock somewhere else?

Actively frequency-stabilized CW single-frequency ring Ti:Sapphire laser TIS-SF-777 - request a quote

Unique TIS-SF-777 laser has more narrow linewidth for Ti:Sa lasers on the present market. TIS-SF-777 laser has super-narrow linewidth (< 5 kHz/sec) and unique Auto Re-lock function which is extremely useful in a work with frequency stabilized laser.

General description
• Ring design, three wavelength selectors: birefringent filter, thin and thick etalons, elec-tronically controlled thick etalon to ensure laser operation in a single longitudinal-cavity mode.
• Ultra-narrow line width up to < 5 kHz rms (1 sec): active frequency stabilization to an external reference cavity, special fast PZT actuator with extended response bandwidth.
• Unique function Smart Auto-Relock that allows uninterrupted laser operation in the fre-quency stabilisation mode under arbitrary external perturbations.
• Actively thermostated high-finesse reference cavity, frequency drift <40MHz/hr.
• External lock capability for stabilization to an absolute reference (e.g. iodine saturated absorption line).
Wavelength range, power
• Laser optimized at factory for primary operation wavelength around 759 nm
• Output power at 759nm+/-10nm 1,4W or better with 10W pump (DPSS, 532 nm, TE-Moo).
• TEMoo mode, linear polarization.
General design
• Most of the mounts are placed on a horizontal base plate, which is also the top element of the compact rigid 3-D frame made from three invar rods that ensures high stability of the optical element positions.
• Ease of adjustment, simplified laser alignment in the ring configuration because of pre-liminary optimisation of the elements in the linear cavity, exceptionally accurate alignment of the pump beam position.
• Premium Ti:Sapphire crystal (FOM > 500).
• Enclosed cavity with nitrogen purge port.
• Ergonomical and reliable electronic control unit featuring a built-in generator for smooth scanning of the laser frequency.

Near IR viewers High performance infrared monocular viewers are designed to observe radiation emitted by infrared sources. They can be used to observe indirect radiation of IR LED's and diode lasers, Nd:YAG, Ti:Sapphire, Cr:Forsterite, dye lasers and other laser sources. IR viewers are ideal for applications involving the alignment of infrared laser beams and of optical components in near-infrared systems. Near IR viewers sensitive to laser radiation up to 2000 nm. The light weight, compact monocular may be used as a hand-held or facemask mounted for hands free operation. Ultraviolet viewers are designed to observe radiation emitted by UV sources.

Frequency-stabilized CW single-frequency ring Dye laser DYE-SF-007 pumped by DPSS DMPLH laser installed in the brand new group of Dr. Dajun Wang at the The Chinese University of Hong Kong. DYE-SF-077 features exceptionally narrow generation line width, which amounts to less than 100 kHz. DYE-SF-077 sets new standard for generation line width of commercial lasers. Prior to this model, the narrowest line-width of commercial dye lasers was as broad as 500 kHz - 1 MHz. It is necessary to note that the 100-kHz line-width is achieved in DYE-SF-077 without the use of an acousto-optical modulator, which, as a rule, complicates the design and introduces additional losses. A specially designed ultra-fast PZT is used for efficient suppression of radiation frequency fluctuations in a broad frequency range. DYE-SF-077 will be used in resaerch of Ultracold polar molecules, Bose-Einstein condensate and quantum degenerate Fermi gas and High resolution spectroscopy
