Chilas Lasers

In a recent article, we introduced the #ChilasCOMET Swept Source Laser and its potential across various applications. Since then, our engineers have been busy putting it to the test, and more recently run an absorption spectrum experiment with a gas cell to explore its performance in spectroscopy and sensing. ☄ With a 40 nm/s sweep rate, we recorded the HCN absorption lines in sync with our oscilloscope, resulting in a clear, high-resolution spectrum. The result? The COMET’s precision is spot-on for high-precision spectroscopy! ➤ Check out our demo on the Chilas COMET Swept Source Laser: https://lnkd.in/dRwEaJY6 ➤ Did not hear yet about Chilas COMET?
