Quasi-CW Lasers

Quasi-continuous-wave (Quasi-CW) lasers feature a switched pump source that is switched on for short enough time periods to reduce thermal effects, while also remaining switched on for long enough time periods to maintain a continuous-wave optical output.

  • Vanguard™ One™ Quasi-CW Lasers are compact, all-in-one, quasi-CW laser delivering >125 mW of UV power. The new laser operates air-cooled with low noise of <1% rms and delivers a long-operating life and low cost of ownership. The new laser operates air-cooled with low noise of <1% rms and delivers a long-operating life and low cost of ownership. Vanguard One is ideal for applications in bio-instrumentation, including flow cytometry, microscopy, cell sorting, and semiconductor wafer inspection.
