Free Space Laser Module - OZ Optics

Ultra-stable laser in a compact housing    

OZ Optics Free Space Laser Module   

The OZ Optics OZ-5000 laser module is a temperature stabilised, free-space laser delivery system built within a compact housing. Numerous models and power levels are available, based on 23 standard wavelengths.

Features

• Wavelengths: 23 models offer from 375 to 1625 nm with low RMS noise
• Operational variation: ± 0.1 nm
• Variable beam size: collimated or adjustable
• Excellent beam pointing stability
• Simple analogue/TTL interface. USB or other interfaces optional

A simple 5 V_dc supply is all that is required to power the module. Control is via the 9-pin port, with one pin supplying power to the unit; a second acting as an interlock, switching the laser on or off (A mechanical shutter is available as an option for additional safety); and a third offering electrical control of the output power by means of a variable voltage, where 0 V enables full power output and 5 V the minimum. This attenuation control can also be used to modulate the laser output at up to 100 kHz, while a special version is available with a modulation capability of up to 150 MHz. Full details and specifications can be found in the datasheet downloadable from the Documents tab above.

Applications

• Confocal microscopy
• Flow Cytometry
• DNA Sequencing
• Medical Imaging
• Interferometry
• Particle counting
• Optical component manufacturing and testing
• Materials evaluation and testing
• Printing

Note: Wavelength accuracy and power output of these modules is dependent on diode chosen.
