Violet laser producing power from 4mW to 30mW at 408nm for series a range of applications including cytometry, high-throughput screening, and confocal microscopy
This new wavelength enables bioinstrumentation system builders in flow cytometry, high-throughput drug discovery, DNA sequencing and confocal microscopy to design multi-wavelength systems utilising a common laser platform and interface.
Furthermore, the high-power output of the Cube 660 will enable advanced product development of systems intended to utilize emerging long-wavelength fluorophores.
In addition to high output power and excellent beam quality, the Cube 660 also delivers high stability in terms of beam pointing (<6urad/C) and low noise (<0.2%RMS).
The utility of this laser is further extended through its ability to be directly modulated at frequencies of up to 150MHz digital and 350kHz analogue.
The Cube 660 laser head measures only 100x40x40mm and is conductively cooled, thus facilitating its integration into a wide range of instrumentation.
