Request InfoMKS/Spectra-PhysicsSANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 30, 2013 — Spectra-Physics, a Newport Corp. brand, is introducing two scientific lasers. The high-power Matisse is a tunable, single-frequency laser with >6.5 W of output and a narrow 60-kHz external linewidth. The Solstice is a one-box ultrafast amplifier that produces <50-fs pulses in the kilohertz repetition rate regime and doubles the peak power at >70 GW. The Matisse is pumped with the Millennia eV. Combined with its near-diffraction-limited TEM00 beam quality, the laser is used in molecular and atomic cooling, trapping and spectroscopy, atomic clocks and microcavities.
