Application context
Why this design is used
Typical uses for this laser type, with the selection logic tied to the model record.
Spectrum analysis
PGL-VI-1550: 1550 nm emission sets the excitation and detector-band choice for Spectrum analysis; linewidth and wavelength stability determine how cleanly weak spectral features can be separated from the laser line. The listed beam characteristic (Near TEM00) also controls focusing and collection geometry.
Measurement
PGL-VI-1550: Measurement benefits from a stable, focusable source. 1550 nm emission fixes the compatible coatings and detector response, while the listed beam characteristic (Near TEM00) informs waist size and propagation.
Flow cytometry
PGL-VI-1550: 1550 nm emission can be matched to the absorption or excitation band used in Flow cytometry. Power stability and beam pointing should be confirmed because both affect quantitative image or fluorescence intensity.
System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect PGL-VI-1550 to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Thermal management
- Operating temperature: 0°C to 40°C
- Provide the stated cooling method and keep the laser-head base thermally coupled; temperature drift moves wavelength, output power and beam pointing.
- Beam parameters at the output
- Transverse mode: Near TEM00 · Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <3
- 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.
