M Squared Lasers introduces SolsTiS-EMM - the new External Mixing Module designed to complement the award-winning ‘SolsTiS’, CW narrow linewidth Ti:Sapphire laser.
A major breakthrough in laser technology, SolsTiS-EMM enables access to previously hard to reach wavelengths in the UV, visible and IR regions, whilst also featuring the narrow linewidth, ease of use and ultra stable output for which SolsTiS is well-known.
This new addition now gives M Squared’s SolsTiS platform unrivalled wavelength coverage from 210nm to 3.2um, achieved through a variety of extensions which feature doubling, sum frequency and difference frequency mixing schemes.
SolsTiS-EMM is a new extension for the SolsTiS Platform
In particular, this all-solid state, hands free solution for wavelength coverage now supersedes dye lasers, removing the hazards and instabilities associated with this toxic gain material.
Professor Duncan Steel of the University of Michigan commented:
“The new sum frequency generation technique developed by M Squared, and based on the solid state pumped SolsTiS Ti-Sapphire laser, provides an incredible new technology that vastly improves the availability of tunable and frequency stabilized CW lasers in a spectral region previously dominated by dye lasers.”
Graeme Malcolm OBE, CEO of M Squared added:
“When we set out to develop SolsTiS, we set out to develop a ‘best in class’ laser system that would dramatically improve scientific experimentation – more accurate, more reliable, automated, easier to use. With that achievement under our belt, we’re continually extending the platform, using the same core technology and patented techniques to help scientists and engineers explore new regions.”
“There are a plethora of applications that could be helped by SolsTiS-EMM, from unraveling cell biology to characterising single quantum emitters that enable quantum computers.”
About the SolsTiS platform
SolsTiS represents a step-change in continuous-wave Ti:Sapphire laser technology. It’s a super-compact system with a completely sealed, alignment-free cavity unique to M Squared. It offers hands-free operation with an unprecedented tuning range, unrivalled power, and the ultimate narrow linewidth, low noise output. Leading researchers around the world are pushing the frontiers of science with SolsTiS in their labs. For further information on SolsTiS-EMM visit:
