Newport has introduced the Lakit series, a range of laser power alignment tuning kits designed for laser tuning and alignment in research applications.
The kit includes a 1917-R laser power meter, as well as a wide selection of optical detectors to help researchers with matching the laser type.
Each kit contains an optical power meter, a detector and the corresponding mounting assembly to simplify product selection and setup and to reduce costs.
The Lakit series tuning kits use three types of detectors, silicon (Si), germanium (Ge) or thermopile.
They operate in wavelength ranges from 200Nm to 10.6 microns, and up to 100W average power.
The 918D series is designed for low power lasers (<2W/cm2) and operates in the visible or in the infrared (IR) spectrum.
It features an integrated OD3 attenuator to increase the measurement dynamic range.
The 818P series thermopile detectors are designed for measuring the average power for high-power lasers that operate both in continuous-wave (CW) and pulsed modes.
The broadband flat spectral response ranges from 0.19 to 11 microns, with high damage threshold and high sensitivity to optical power.
For more complex measurement and data acquisition requirements, Newport also provides advanced optical power meters and detectors.
