Description
The Laser Lock Pro (LLP-100) is a laser frequency control add-on designed for use with santec's TSL-570 laser system. It offers precise frequency locking capabilities by processing an electrical error signal derived from an extra frequency reference. Our dedicated PC software enables simulataneous control of the TSL-570 and LLP-100, ensuring optimized frequency lock conditions. In Auto-lock mode, various control sequences can be automated; including lock point search, engagement, monitoring, and relocking. There is also a Trigger Control mode which allows the feedback system to be activated with TTL signals.
Upgrade your laser frequency control with the LLP-100 and experience precise and effecient frequency locking tailored to your needs.
Advanced simultaneous control using the dedicated software
Simultaneous control of the tunable laser and the laser servo controller with automated lock sequences which lock to a reference within 10 seconds.
Various locking sequences selectable for your application
Manual lock, auto lock/relock and trigger-based lock control modes.
Equipped with essential adjustment functions
Incorporates laser wavelength controller/monitor, PID controller and function generator.
Applications
- Microcavity locking for Silicon photonics
- Absorption spectrum locking for Quantum photonics
- Continuous comb generation using a microcavity on a silicon photonics chip
- Quantum applications to stabilize the laser at arbitrary wavelengths
