Streak Cameras
-
Streak camera technology was developed for measuring ultra-fast optical phenomena. OptoScope streak cameras provide temporal resolution down to the Picosecond regime. Additionally, OptoScope systems have high sensitivity allowing single photon detection. Streak cameras are the only instruments that can capture the behavior over time of multiple optical signals. Combined with a spectrometer this allows their application in the field of time resolved spectroscopy.

PXI FlexRIO Signal Generator
FlexRIO Signal Generator
The PXI FlexRIO Signal Generator combines analog I/O and a user-programmable FPGA into a single, customizable instrument. The instrument enables RF signal generation up to 2.9 GHz with 12 bits of resolution. The PXI FlexRIO Signal Generator uses FPGAs from Xilinx alongside LabVIEW and Vivado programming options for custom algorithm implementation and real-time signal processing. Using this instrument with NI-TClk, you can synchronize modules in one or more PXI chassis at up to picosecond‐level accuracy for high‐channel‐count applications.

Differential Picosecond Pulse Generators
PicoSource PG900 Series
-
The fast-transition pulse can stimulate a transmission path, device or network with a broad spectrum signal in a single instant. Such a pulse is very useful for many of the high-speed broadband measurements that we need to make; for instance in time-domain reflectometry, semiconductor test, gigabit interconnect and port test and in radar.

Harmonic Generators
-
Our harmonic Generators include Doubler, Tripler, and Quadrupler for doubling, tripling, and quadrupling laser frequency in the wavelength range 680-1300nm. The second harmonic, third harmonic, and fourth harmonic generation up-convert the laser frequency to a wavelength range 190-650nm. These harmonic generators greatly expanded the application of wavelength range for femtosecond and picosecond lasers available for both amplifiers and oscillators.

Pulse Characterization Sensors
-
Pulse Characterization Sensors provide the ability to see and measure the temporal characteristics of pulsed and CW laser beams. Ophir Fast Photodiode Detectors are designed to convert optical signals into electrical signals which are then measured with third-party instrumentation such as oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers. Accessories are available to connect to IS6 integrating spheres or fiber optic cables. Attenuating filter accessories are also available to increase their dynamic range. Different models offer silicon, UV enhanced silicon and InGaAs PIN photodiodes, covering a combined spectral range of 193 nm to 1700 nm. Rise times range from 25 picoseconds to 3 nanoseconds. The fast rise times are achieved by an internal reverse bias voltage circuit. Power is supplied by internal batteries and/or an external power supply depending on the model. Detectors should be connected to a 50Ω impedance in order to maintain their nominal rise times. They can be connected to higher impedance loads, but this will result in a significant increase in the rise time. If higher output voltage is required, it is recommended to connect the detector to a trans-impedance amplifier with an Input impedance of 50Ω
