TLB-6700-LN Newport Wide and Fine Tunable External Cavity Diode Laser Controller

The Newport / New Focus Velocity TLB-6700 Series Wide and Fine Tunable External Cavity Diode Lasers offer high performance, delivering true continuous mode-hop-free tuning over wide wavelength ranges. The Velocity TLB-6700 Series is a premier tunable diode laser system offering both wide and fine wavelength scanning. The laser cavity housing is shock proof and thermally insulated with active temperature control and incorporates unique magnetic damping technology providing higher power, stability, and narrow linewidths.

The fiber coupled option includes a robust, permanently fixed fiber port for optimal coupling efficiency maintained across the wavelength tuning range. Both the isolator and coupling are within the laser housing to ensure the highest power stability.

The Velocity is operated using the TLB-6700-LN controller designed with low-noise analog circuits. The laser head is recognized upon startup, and optimum temperature, maximum current limit, and tuning range are automatically set. Current limits and safety shutoff features ensure maximum diode lifetime.

Integrated wavelength monitoring allows adjustment to within 0.01 nm, and piezo fine tuning provides even finer sub-picometer precision. External control and frequency locking are possible via analog input ports, and operation in both manual and remotely programmed modes is accessed via a USB interface.
