Laser Components has introduced the LuxxMaster Raman source, which is smaller and less expensive than previous models, for use in medical technology, industrial and military applications. Designed for OEM applications, the stabilised laser source is well suited for Raman spectroscopy and sensor applications. Using a volume Bragg grating, the 785 nm laser wavelength is stabilised across the entire operating temperature range from 0°C to 50°C. At the same time, the full width at half maximum is typically reduced to 0.08 nm. The noise level of the laser is < 0.25% RMS. A supply voltage of 5 V is required for operation. Other wavelengths, including 532 nm, are also available. The source can be connected to a 105 µm MM fibre, for example, from which a typical output power of 500 mW can be achieved. With the help of the USB interface, the source can be controlled using a PC.
