ICL-based External Cavities

Alpes Lasers now offers Broad Gain Interband Cascade Laser (ICL) chips for use in External cavity systems. ICLs allow emission at shorter wavelengths than traditional QCLs, many of which are particularly interesting for hydrocarbon detection. The initially offered chip covers the range 3.2-3.6 μm (2820-3070 cm-1) which contains strong absorption lines for CH4, C2H6, HCl and CH2O (formaldehyde).Contact us at sales@alpeslasers.ch for more information!

New Frequency Comb Lasers

Frequency Combs Lasers are now available centered around 6.02 μm, in the amine band, in addition to previously available comb lasers available around 7.95 μm. You can more details in this Optics Express paper as well as in this a sample datasheet.
