Benchtop External Cavity Laser Controller

Laser Current | TEC | Piezo Scanning | Remote Control

Description:

The PilotPZ is a laser diode controller together with laser diode temperature controller, Piezo Amplifier and Function Generator combined in one bench-top instrument. Special features are low noise laser current and highly stable temperature control. Remote control via USB, GPIB / IEEE 488.2, and RS232 interface.

Application:
Demanding diode lasers as Distributed Feedback (DFB) Diode Lasers or External Cavity Diode Lasers (ECDLs) require a highly precise, low noise, long term stable diode laser controller. Spectral linewidth as well as long term stability of these laser systems are directly determined by the laser controller. The PilotPC represents more than 15 years of experience in precision laser system development for laboratory and industrial enviroments.
