Additional Value

When used in conjunction with an additional standard femtosecond OPA, the SHBC/TOPAS-400 offers the potential to provide both femtosecond and picosecond tunable beams simultaneously using a single femtosecond amplifier. The SHBC converts the wide bandwidth beam at 800 nm from the femtosecond ultrafast amplifier (purchased separately) to a narrow bandwidth beam at 400 nm. This 400 nm beam is then used to pump the TOPAS-400-ps-WL picosecond OPA model to generate tunable, narrow bandwidth beam from 480 nm to 2600 nm.
