Optical Delay Line (FastScan)
Design Tools
Complete Your Setup
An OPTICAL DELAY LINE is a critical element of any ultrafast pump-probe (or pump-gate) set-up. Even a small change in the beam pointing (laser beam drift, moved mirrors, etc.) can compromise the quality of your data.
Key Features
- Fully automated and hands-off alignment of the delay line. Does not require any special training.
- Automatically restores the original delay line alignment and the beam pointing after the delay line.
- Typical alignment time is 3-5 min.
- High level of precision, unattainable with manual methods. Beam pointing drift of <10 µm at sample position throughout an 8 ns delay range.
- A shorter translation stage allows for faster travel between time points. This is very useful for random time stepping.
