Elforlight announces the release of its Maldi FQ laser system.
The pulsed Nd:YAG UV laser provides superior beam quality and low jitter at high repetition rates.
Specifically designed for Maldi instruments, the laser system is a drop-in replacement for nitrogen lasers thus enabling the next generation of high throughput instruments and imaging systems.
Diode pumped solid state laser technology means reliability and extended lifetimes, offering real advantages to the user compared to the older gas laser technology.
Field replaceable pump diodes will minimise system downtime.
Energy levels of 100microjoules at 1kHz repetition rate and a 4ns pulse are typical parameters for the 355nm wavelength output.
The laser exhibits timing jitter specified at <+/-1ns with respect to an external trigger input (typically +/-500ps), making it ideal for Maldi-Tof usage and enabling the system to control the laser.
