PicoQuant Extends its Diode Laser Family

PicoQuant has added two laser heads emitting at   395 nm and 420 nm to its LDH Series. Both laser heads are ideal for exciting e.g. porphyrin or phthalocyanin containing samples in fluorescence microscopy or fluorescence spectroscopy. With pulse durations as short as 70 ps, they are match the time resolution of mainstream detectors, yet at a price much lower than of mode-locked lasers or nanosecond flashlamps. The two laser heads are also available in a dual mode version that allows picosecond pulsed as well as continuous-wave operation. moreMay. 04, 2012
