• WLM-NIR Integrated Wavelength Meter

  Product Code: WLM-NIR

  Integrated wavelength meter with 100 MHz accuracy at 900 - 1700 nm

• WLM-VIS Integrated Wavelength Meter

  Product Code: WLM-VIS

  Integrated wavelength meter with 100 MHz accuracy at 500 - 1100 nm

• SmartAmp SmartComb Extension

  Product Code: SmartAmp

  The SmartComb can be extended with a 19”, 3 HE rack containing up to 6 amplifiers, 6 beat detection units (BDU) and frequency counters. Using the SmartComb as a seed, the comb light is distributed and amplified with the SmartAmp. Together with internal BDUs and counters the system automatically measures your laser frequencies, in the range of 530-2000 nm, to the 14th digit. In addition, the beat signals serve as error signals to stabilize your CW laser (e.g. with a MenloSystems SYNCRO LLE unit) when required.

  In short: Stabilize all frequencies and transitions in your quantum optics laboratory to one absolute frequency reference!
