NOPA - Non-colinear Optical Parametric Amplifier

Source: Clark-MXR, Inc.
NOPA™ is a white light continuum seeded optical parametric amplifier (OPA) able to generate extremely short pulses when pumped by an ultra stable Clark-MXR, Inc. CPA-2001 Amplified Ti:Sapphire laser system.
Features:
· Optimized to be pumped by the CPA-2001
· Pulses as short as 10fs proven by end users
· Near TEM00 output mode
· White light continuum seeded for high stability

NOPA™ is a white light continuum seeded optical parametric amplifier (OPA) able to generate extremely short pulses when pumped by an ultra stable Clark-MXR, Inc. CPA-2001 Amplified Ti:Sapphire laser system. A combination of continuum generation and parametric amplification allows the user to continuously tune the output wavelength from 470nm to 650nm with no change in optics. Pumped with 200µJ pulses from the Clark-MXR, Inc. Model CPA-2001 at 775nm, 1KHz repetition rate, NOPA™ produces up to 10µJ of energy per pulse with sub-30fs pulsewidths. The design was optimized to ensure high spatial beam quality.
