IPG Photonics offers single frequency Cr:ZnSe/S continuous wave Mid-IR lasers. These lasers are offered as either fixed wavelength CL-SF or tunable CLT-SF models. The tunable range is from 2 to 3 microns with a custom selected central wavelength. Rapid tuning option is available. The lasers feature linewidth 0.5 to 10 MHz (typ. <1 MHz) and TEM00 beam mode quality. The SF series Mid-IR lasers provide from up to 10 W output power. These lasers are pumped by IPG’s efficient and reliable erbium (1.6 micron) or thulium (1.9 micron) CW fiber lasers. Single frequency Cr:ZnSe/S lasers are used in scientific and R&D applications such as high resolution spectroscopy, OPO pumping and free space communications.
