PicoQuant will be showcasing its latest laser innovations at the upcoming Laser World of Photonics (LASER 2017) event to be held in Munich, Germany, from 26-29 June, 2017. The highlights at the exhibition will include the green emitting fiber amplified laser head LDH-P-FA-560, several new modules from the VisIR / VisUV platform series, and the FLIMbee galvo scanner add-on for the MicroTime 200.

The new LDH-P-FA-560 delivers 560 nm light with average optical powers of more than 3 mW at a repetition rate of 40 MHhz and pulse widths down to 40 ps. This new laser is optimally suited for exciting molecular probes or fluorescent proteins commonly used in life science as well as for applications in bioanalytics, biochemistry, genetics, semiconductor characterization, and quality control.

The VisIR / VisUV platform line-up is rounded out by new modules VisUV-1064, VisUV-532-HP, VisIR-1530, and VisIR-1530-HP. They generate high-powered picosecond light pulses in the green (532 nm) or near infrared (1064 nm or 1531 nm) spectral range, which are well suited for applications requiring higher laser powers such as LIDAR or in-situ Raman spectroscopy.

The FLIMbee galvo scanner add-on provides the MicroTime 200 time-resolved confocal microscope with an outstanding flexibility in scanning speed, ranging from very slow to fast, while maintaining excellent spatial precision. The fast scanning option enables imaging of quickly occurring changes in samples and of fast chemical or physical processes, while slower scanning speeds are optimal for applications such as Phosphorescence Lifetime Imaging (PLIM).
