Datasheet: Seeded Surelite - Injection Seeder System

The new injection seeder system for the Surelite™ Family produces ultra-narrow single longitudinal mode (SLM) outputs with a smooth temporal profile. Seeding is accomplished by injecting a seed beam from a single mode cw diode pumped fiber laser into the Surelite oscillator. Continuum pioneered the commercial introduction of this technique and holds the patent on its use with radially variable reflectivity resonator optics11. Important applications that require narrow linewidth include pumping narrow linewidth tunable systems, holography, and Doppler LIDAR.
