ASOPS Engine
ASOPS Engine
Advanced time-domain spectroscopy enabled by ultra-precise offset synchronization for the taccor and gecco product lines. Supports rapid-scanning capability (up to 20 kHz) over large time-windows (up to 5 ns) while avoiding mechanical alignment limitations. Enables next-generation ultrafast diagnostics and analysis.
Best for: Metrology, imaging, ultrafast measurement
Key advantage: Accuracy
Compatibility: Ultrafast laser systems, research platforms
Overview
Third generation ASOPS technique enables precise and fast time-domain spectroscopy ASOPS Engine A leading sub-system for precision measurement and analysis of time-domain data.
High Resolution
- GHz rep rate – Offering benefits in a range of applications for reliable results in time domain spectroscopy.
- High resolution – The long measurement window of 1 ns (for taccor based systems) or 5 ns (for gecco based systems) allows THz spectroscopy with very high frequency resolution and excellent frequency stability.
20 kHz Scan Rates
- The time delay for time-domain spectroscopy is generated by employing ASOPS using two 1 GHz lasers with a small difference in repetition rate allowing for scan rates up to 20 kHz.
