Teaching
TUN-518-522: 522 nm emission determines compatible optics, coatings and detectors for Teaching. The catalogued beam parameter (<1.0) helps predict how the source will focus and propagate through the instrument.
Holographic imaging
TUN-518-522: 522 nm emission determines compatible optics, coatings and detectors for Holographic imaging. The catalogued beam parameter (<1.0) helps predict how the source will focus and propagate through the instrument.
Raman
TUN-518-522: 522 nm emission sets the excitation and detector-band choice for Raman; linewidth and wavelength stability determine how cleanly weak spectral features can be separated from the laser line. The listed beam characteristic (<1.0) also controls focusing and collection geometry.
System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect TUN-518-522 to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Thermal management
- Operating temperature (℃): 20-30
- 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
- Beam divergence, full angle (mrad): <1.0
- 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.
