SUV

• Novel SHG resonator design for the deep-UV spectral range
• 10-fold power gain over standard design (typ.)
• Optimized for lowest UV-induced degradation
• Crystal shifter included

SUV is TOPTICA’s solution to the well-known problem of output power degradation of deep-UV (DUV) laser sources. A multitude of mechanisms leads to stringent limits in output powers whenever the DUV wavelength regime is reached. At the same time, industry applications require turn-key UV lasers like the TopWave 266. With SUV, the same industry-style performance is available for the scientific market and Quantum Technologies.

SUV stands for the development of a groundbreaking new resonator design. The UV optics are contained in a sealed volume. All components are carefully chosen and optimized for DUV wavelength operation. The NLO crystal mounting includes a shifting mechanism, multiplying its lifetime. This allows for longterm stable output powers, and power specifications reaching an order of magnitude above conventional designs.
