The Skylark 320 NX is a highly-stable, single-frequency continuous wave diode-pumped solid-state (DPSS) UV laser designed for precision applications in inspection, lithography, and manufacturing. This laser provides ultra-stable UV light at a wavelength of 320 nm, delivering up to 200 mW of output power. Engineered for consistent, long-term performance, the Skylark 320 NX offers low noise and high spectral purity. Its design is suitable for demanding and emerging applications that require a robust and reliable light source.
Key Features
- Ultra-Stable Wavelength: The laser’s wavelength is exceptionally stable, with drift limited to ±0.2 pm over an 8-hour operation period. This high level of spectral stability is crucial for applications that demand consistent performance.
- Ultra-Low Power Noise: With power noise of less than or equal to 0.3% RMS (10 Hz – 10 MHz), the Skylark 320 NX minimizes signal distortion. This ensures clean, reliable data collection in noise-sensitive processes.
- Ultra-Narrow Linewidth: A linewidth of less than or equal to 500 kHz gives the laser high spectral purity. This narrow linewidth allows for precise spectral resolution, making it ideal for tasks that require fine detail and accuracy.
- Ultra-Stable Output Power: The output power is highly stable, with a stability of less than or equal to 2.0% over an 8-hour operation period. This ensures reliable and consistent results for long-running processes.
