Technical FAQ

Configuration questions for Multi-function Optical System

What cooling does the Multi-function Optical System require?

Thermal management: TC-01 active control or TC-02 passive heat sink / Stabilizes source temperature and removes waste heat. Provide the stated cooling method and keep the laser-head base thermally coupled; temperature drift moves wavelength, output power and beam pointing.

What beam does the Multi-function Optical System deliver?

Typical beam diameter: 2.0 mm. Size the downstream optics from the stated beam diameter and divergence rather than from the aperture of the housing, and confirm the polarisation state before specifying isolators or polarising optics.
